Fortnite Offers V-Bucks Refund Ahead of Chapter 5 Season 3
Fortnite players can use V-bucks to purchase various items such as skins, weapons, and bundles. While V-bucks can be earned through gameplay, they are most commonly acquired with real money. Recognizing their value, Epic Games has announced another V-bucks refund for eligible Fortnite players.
Although the refund process hasn’t started yet, players will want to stock up on V-bucks for Chapter 5 Season 3. The first teaser has confirmed the start date, and Epic Games has already revealed the upcoming season’s name. As always, a new battle pass packed with goodies will be available, and the first new battle pass skin has possibly leaked.
With the launch of Season 3 on the horizon, it’s essential to check your eligibility for Epic Games’ latest V-bucks refund scheme before the season begins.
Epic Games announces another Fortnite V-bucks refund
Another offering of V-bucks refunds is underway for Fortnite players. Per the official fnfeststatus Twitter account, Epic Games is refunding players who purchased the Twenty One Pilots Jam Bundle from the item shop.
Epic Games posted The message on social media :
‘We have removed the Twenty One Pilots Jam Bundle from the Item Shop after identifying an issue that prevents the correct price from being applied when one or two items in the bundle are already owned. Refunds for the cost difference will be sent to affected players who purchased the bundle.’
Before being removed from the item shop by Epic Games, iFireMonkey reported that the bug resulted in the Twenty One Pilots Jam Track bundle costing 1,100 V-bucks. This was due to the bundle’s default ‘floor price’.
There is no mention of when or if the Twenty One Pilots Jam Track bundle will return to the item shop. However, if you purchased it at 1,100 V-bucks despite already owning one or two items, you should be receiving a refund from Epic Games. Typically refunds take a few days to happen, and the announcement from Epic Games was only just posted on May 17th at 5 AM BST.
