[UPDATE] The Federal Trade Commission announced today, March 14, that it has finalized its order for Epic Games to pay $245 million to settle claims that Epic “used dark patterns to trick players into making unwanted purchases and let children rack up unauthorized charges without any parental involvement.”
The Commission voted 4-0 to approve the order, which was first announced in December 2022.
The millions will be used for refunds to customers. Those believing they are due a refund can visit FTC.gov/Fortnite to get more information on the refund process.
