Golden Cube is lore entity in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It is the most powerful Cubes powered by dark energy from The Last Reality. The Golden Cube first made its appearance in Chapter 2: Season 7, during the Operation: Sky Fire event.
Description[]
The Golden Cubes are identical to the Corruption Cubes, albeit golden in color. The Golden Cube acts as a catalyst for Cube reproduction, allowing for more cubes to be spawned in once it "awakens" other Corruption Cubes. During The End event, Cube Queen used the Golden Cube at the top of The Pyramid to gather all corruption cube energy and use them to open a golden rift to the Last Reality.
