In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, cash is king. Mob boss Fletcher Kane controls the flow, establishing safehouses across the map. Seizing one of these offers a unique reward: Gold Rush. This guide explains what Gold Rush is and how to activate it.

What Is Gold Rush in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2?

Gold Bars remain a crucial currency in Fortnite, used for various in-game purchases. This season introduces a twist: Gold Rush. Activating Gold Rush significantly boosts your speed, pickaxe swing speed, and pickaxe damage against structures. It's a powerful temporary advantage, similar to a Boon or Medallion, providing a competitive edge. There are multiple ways to trigger this helpful boost.

Unlike other abilities with single activation methods, Gold Rush offers flexibility. A quick dip in gold-infused water instantly activates it. These water sources are scattered across the map, increasing your chances of finding one each match.

Alternatively, if swimming isn't your style, you can mine Gold Veins. These veins, the source of Gold Bars, now grant Gold Rush upon mining. Shiny Shafts, Fletcher Kane's primary gold supply location, is an excellent place to find these veins. However, be warned—Kane and his crew are heavily armed and won't surrender their riches easily.

This covers Gold Rush in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2 and how to activate it. For more information, check out the rumored collaborations for this Lawless season.

Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
