— Description, Sonic Forces: Speed Battle

The Gold Rush is an Item Box power-up that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a Boost Item used primarily to increase the user's speed.

Description[]

The Gold Rush's icon takes the appearance of a golden orb surrounded by gold sparks and with a trail of Rings following it in its wake. In gameplay, this power-up becomes a golden aura that surrounds the user and leaves an golden trail in its wake.

Overview[]

In gameplay, the Gold Rush can only be obtained at random from Item Boxes by Elite Agent Rouge and Treasure Hunter Knuckles.

Once obtained, the player can utilize the Gold Rush by pressing its icon on the bottom of the HUD. When used, the Gold Rush will increase the speed of the user for a short amount of time. Right after used, it will start draining the user's Ring count until it wears off, or duration limit reached, then Gold Rush's speed boost is automatically disabled.
