In Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, the name of the game is cash. Mob boss Fletcher Kane controls the flow of gold, and his safehouses hold the key to a powerful boost: 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 adds a twist: Gold Rush. Activating Gold Rush significantly increases your movement speed, pickaxe swing speed, and pickaxe damage against structures. It's a temporary but potent advantage, similar to other in-game buffs. There are multiple ways to unleash this power boost.
How To Activate Gold Rush in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2
Unlike some abilities, Gold Rush offers players two paths to activation:
A Golden Dip: Find and submerge yourself in gold-infused water. These locations are scattered across the map, making it likely you'll encounter one during a match.
Mine the Veins: Gold Veins, the source of Gold Bars, now grant Gold Rush upon mining. Shiny Shafts, a key location controlled by Fletcher Kane, is a prime spot to find these veins. Be warned, however—Kane and his crew are heavily guarded and won't surrender their gold easily.
This covers what Gold Rush is and how to activate it in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2. For more information, check out the rumored collaborations for this season.
Fortnite is available on various platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
