Overview
- Epic Games enabled self-service refunds Tuesday for players who bought D4vd-linked cosmetics, following a weekend pledge to expand options beyond standard channels.
- Refunds cover purchases tied to the Feel It emote, two jam tracks titled What Are You Waiting For and Locked & Loaded, and a locker bundle associated with the singer.
- Epic relaxed its usual 30-day window and limited refund tokens, allowing support agents to process returns even for older purchases that would normally be ineligible.
- The company has not committed to removing or disabling the items, which remain usable in-game as Epic describes refunds as the first in a series of changes.
- David Anthony Burke, known as D4vd, is charged with first-degree murder and related offenses in the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez, has pleaded not guilty, and faces a preliminary hearing on May 1, while collaborators and his label have already cut ties.
