Fortnite is currently in the midst of Treasure Hunters, a mini-season packed with new content for you to get stuck into. As the name suggests, the main focus is on hunting for Treasure, with plenty of exclusive rewards up for grabs if you’re lucky enough to find them.
One of the most sought-after rewards is the Weekly Gold Outfit, an incredibly rare cosmetic that’s completely free to obtain. Showing one off in a future match is sure to turn a few heads, but actually getting your hands on one is easier said than done.
Fortunately, we’ve got everything you need to know. Here’s how to find Weekly Gold Outfits in Fortnite, alongside the exact drop rates and odds for every Treasure reward currently available.
How To Find Weekly Gold Outfits In Fortnite
Currently, the only way to obtain a Weekly Gold Outfit in Fortnite is by getting incredibly lucky and finding one inside a chest during a match.
It’s unclear whether these exclusive skins will eventually make their way into the Item Shop, but until Epic Games confirms otherwise, you’ll need to rely on chest drops if you want to add one to your collection.
With hundreds of chests scattered across the Fortnite map, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to search for one. However, you’ll need to open an extraordinary number of them before you can realistically expect to find a Gold Outfit.
That’s because the odds of finding one are incredibly slim. If you’ve already been hunting for a Pirate Shop Token, you’ll know just how difficult some of these Treasure rewards can be to obtain. However, the Weekly Gold Outfit makes even that look relatively easy…
How Rare Are The Weekly Gold Outfits In Fortnite?
Epic Games has officially confirmed that the Weekly Gold Outfit has a 1 in 1,562,500 chance of dropping from a chest.
Yes, you read that correctly. That’s a one-in-a-million-plus chance, meaning you’ll need to open over 1.5 million chests to reach the expected drop rate for a free Gold Outfit. In percentage terms, that’s just a 0.000064% chance per chest.
It’s safe to say that you’ll need an awful lot of luck on your side if you’re hoping to find one. Thankfully, there are plenty of Power Hours scheduled across the coming weeks, offering boosted odds at finding the various treasures; some even provide a x10 chance of finding a Gold Outfit, so it’s best to hunt during those windows.
Here’s a full breakdown of the drop rates for every Treasure reward in Fortnite:
| Drop Rates/Odds | Treasure |
|---|---|
| 1 in 1,562,500 | Weekly Gold Outfit |
| 1 in 137,500 | Pirate Shop Access |
| 1 in 7,813 | Weekly Vehicle & Decal |
| 1 in 568 | Weekly Pickaxe or Backbling |
| 1 in 391 | Weekly Jam Track |
| 1 in 272 | Weekly Loading Screen |
| 1 in 127 | Gizmo (any) |
