Rise of Midas

Rise of Midas is an Limited-Time Event in Fortnite: Battle Royale, that began on March 19th 2024 and ended on April 2nd 2024.
Midas — mastermind with the golden touch. In fact, he’s such a mastermind that he escaped jail in The Underworld. But now that he’s escaped, all Hades has broken loose…
In Battle Royale’s Rise of Midas, help Midas flee the Island with special Quests, feel the midsummer heat in the returning Floor is Lava experience, and go for gold in the Rise of Midas Cup! Rise of Midas runs until April 2, 2024, at 9 AM ET.
==Ascending Agent==
First, the curious Marigold notices Midas was in The Underworld… but has escaped. Then, Midas suspects his associate Brutus of treason. But whether he’s guilty or not, the rest of Midas’ crew are committed to getting Midas on “The Marigold” yacht to escape Hades’ wrath. Follow the story in the Rise of Midas Quests and unlock in-game rewards along the way!
Rise of Midas Quest rewards.
The Quests are split into five phases, each going live sequentially. All the phases will be available until Rise of Midas ends (Apr. 2, 2024, at 9 AM ET):
*Midas Rises: available right now!
*Et Tu, Brutus?: available March 20 at 9 AM ET
*Jules vs. the Golden Touch: available March 25 at 9 AM ET
*Myths of Midas: available March 27 at 9 AM ET
*The Great Marigold Yacht Heist: available March 28 at 9 AM ET
For completing six Quests, you’ll unlock the Cerberus Medallion Spray, a memento of the gate to The Underworld. For completing 12, you’ll unlock the Rose of Avarice Back Bling, beauty transformed by golden greed. And for completing 18, you’ll unlock the Queen in Gold Glider, a masterpiece in merry gold.
=="Hot as Hades": Floor Is Lava Returns!==
All that’s glittering hot is gold. During Rise of Midas, Midas presents a golden twist on a fan favorite limited-time experience! Floor is Lava is back for all of Rise of Midas, so jump in and get the high ground to best the lava overtaking the Island. Unlike regular Floor is Lava, Midas Presents: Floor is Lava features items from Chapter 5 Season 2… plus golden lava!
Midas Presents: Floor is Lava has its own Quests that’ll go live sequentially. Available until the end of Rise of Midas (Apr. 2, 2024, at 9 AM ET), complete them for even more in-game rewards! Unlock the Zeus-inspired Lightning King and Zeus Medallion Sprays, and The Gilded Vengeance Pickaxe (Midas’ symbol of the revenge that mattered most).
==The Golden King Goes Forward==
Add a golden touch to your Locker. The Outfit of the escaped Midas — a.k.a. Ascendant Midas — will be available in the Shop starting March 26 at 8 PM ET, as will the Golden King's Cape Back Bling threaded with gold. Literally add a golden touch to your Locker: The Golden Touch Pickaxe will be in the Shop also!
In addition to their default Style, these three items have the Shade Style, as ghastly as Midas loves gold.
Looking for a brilliant finish? The Golden Ascension Wrap will also gleam in the Shop!
