Epic Games is quietly processing refund requests for D4vd cosmetics following serious criminal charges against the artist. If you purchased any of his in-game items and want your V-Bucks back, here is exactly how to do it.
Which D4vd Cosmetics Qualify for a Refund?
Epic Games is accepting refund requests for the following D4vd-related items:
- What Are You Waiting For Jam Track
- Locked & Loaded Jam Track
- Feel It Emote
- Trophy Drop Emote
If you own any of these, you can contact Epic Games support to request your V-Bucks back.
How to Request a Refund for D4vd Cosmetics in Fortnite
Epic Games has not set up an in-game refund option for these items yet. You need to go through their support team directly. Follow these steps:

Method 2: Email Support

Will the Refund Use Your Normal Refund Tokens?
No. Epic Games is processing these refunds as exceptions due to the circumstances surrounding the charges. Your standard in-game refund tokens remain untouched.
Will Epic Remove D4vd Cosmetics from the Game?
Epic Games has not issued a formal public statement on removing the cosmetics. Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR has said the company may wait for a court verdict before taking further action. For reference, Travis Scott’s cosmetics have not appeared in the Item Shop since August 2020 following the Astroworld Festival tragedy, and Epic never publicly explained that decision either.
Epic Games is approving these refunds without making a big announcement about it. If you want your V-Bucks back, reach out to support through live chat for the quickest resolution. You do not need to wait for an official statement or an in-game prompt.
