Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2: Activating the Gold Rush

In *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, the theme revolves around controlling cash, with the mob don Fletcher Kane setting up safehouses across the map. Securing control of one of these safehouses grants players special rewards. This season introduces a unique feature called Gold Rush, which significantly impacts gameplay. Here’s a detailed look at what Gold Rush is and how to activate it in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2.

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

Gold Bars remain a crucial element in *Fortnite*, allowing players to collect currency and exchange it for various in-game items. This season, however, introduces a twist with Gold Rush. By pursuing gold, players can activate Gold Rush, which boosts their speed, accelerates Pickaxe swing speed, and increases the damage their Pickaxe inflicts on structures. Similar to Boons or Medallions, Gold Rush provides a significant advantage, albeit temporary, making it a valuable asset in the battle for supremacy. Players have multiple ways to leverage this new feature in *Fortnite*.

How To Activate Gold Rush in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 2

Unlike other in-game abilities that have a single activation method, Gold Rush offers flexibility. Players can activate it by taking a dip in gold-infused water, which is scattered at various locations across the map. This quick swim will enhance their speed and the power of their attacks. For those who miss out on the gold-infused water, there’s another option: mining Gold Veins, which are now available on the Battle Royale Island. These veins are the primary source of Gold Bars and can be found abundantly in Shiny Shafts, where Fletcher Kane, the Lawless mob don, secures his gold supply. However, be cautious as Kane’s allies are vigilant and keen to protect their boss’s assets from ambitious players.

That’s the scoop on Gold Rush in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2 and the ways to activate it. Stay tuned for more updates and rumors about potential collaborations during the Lawless season.

*Fortnite* is available to play on various platforms, including the Meta Quest 2 and 3.
