Fortnite-maker Epic Games on Feb 22 put out word it is paying the equivalent of about US$8 (RM32.33) worth of its virtual money to some players to settle a lawsuit over so-called random-item “loot boxes”.
The Fortnite maker said it would automatically drop 1,000 V-Bucks into accounts of players who bought Loot Llama pinata-style figures containing in-game items, without knowing what was inside until they had already purchased them.
