While the main focus of Epic Games' uber-popular battle royale gameFortniteis to survive on an island with a hundred other players, players can do many other activities to give them an advantage. One of the things that players can do is collect Gold Bars, a pretty rare currency in the game used to hire NPCs as allies, upgrade weaponry, andpurchase exotic weapons.
These Gold Bars can be earned by defeating opponents, searching cash registers, and opening safes. Normally, players will keep all of their Gold Bars even after losing a battle royale match and continue to be used throughout the season. However, manyFortniteplayers are losing all of their Gold Bars after every match due to a nasty glitch.

Over on theFortnitesubreddit, there have been several posts from frustrated players claiming that their Gold Bars have mysteriously disappeared. DivByTwo post reads: “Both mine and my party members bars are entirely gone. 0. And not just visually, we can’t buy anything. Getting new gold just updates it to what I’d have if I started with nothing. What’s going on?”
Hopefully, Epic Games’Fortniteteam will have the issue fixed up by the end of the weekend so that players can continue to sink their teeth into all of the new content that’s appeared forseason 7’s alien-invasion theme.
Some of the new quests and challenges this week involveeliminating alien trespassers, shooting down a UFO, and destroying computer equipment. And on top of that, players can search for the next batch of Alien Artifacts, which can be used to unlock new styles for Kymera.
Fortniteis currently available for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
