Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2: Gold Rush Activation Guide

Apr 03,2025 Author: Jack

In *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2: Lawless, the battle for control over cash is central to the gameplay. The notorious mob don, Fletcher Kane, has established safehouses across the map, and seizing control of one can unlock special rewards. A key feature of this season is the Gold Rush, which significantly enhances your gameplay experience. Let's dive into what Gold Rush is and how you can activate it in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2.

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

Gold Bars continue to play a crucial role in *Fortnite*, allowing players to collect and spend this currency on various in-game items. However, this season introduces a thrilling twist with the Gold Rush feature. By engaging with gold, players can activate Gold Rush, which boosts their speed, increases the swing speed of the Pickaxe, and enhances the Pickaxe's damage against structures. This temporary power-up, akin to Boons or Medallions, provides a significant advantage over opponents. While it doesn't last indefinitely, the benefits of Gold Rush make it a worthwhile pursuit, and there are multiple ways to activate this feature.

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

Unlike other game abilities that have a single activation method, Gold Rush offers flexibility. One way to activate it is by taking a dip in gold-infused water, which can be found at various locations across the map. This quick swim will boost your speed and enhance your Pickaxe's effectiveness.

For those who can't find gold-infused water, there's another option: mining Gold Veins. These veins, the primary source of Gold Bars on the Battle Royale Island, are now scattered throughout the map. Mining them not only provides you with Gold Bars but also activates the Gold Rush ability. The best spot to find these Gold Veins is in Shiny Shafts, where Fletcher Kane, the Lawless mob don, sources most of his gold. Be cautious, though, as Kane's allies are fiercely protective of his wealth, and they won't hesitate to challenge any player trying to claim it.

That's the rundown on what Gold Rush is and how to activate it in *Fortnite* Chapter 6, Season 2. If you're eager for more, keep an eye out for the rumored collaborations coming up in the Lawless season.

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