Epic Games responds to Microsoft\u2019s \u2018misleading\u2019 Fortnite bundle packaging Epic Games has reacted to concerns surrounding the packaging of the Xbox One S Fortnite bundle, which could have misled some people into thinking they were getting more bang for their buck than they actually were. A message crossposted to the Fortnite BR subreddit on December 26 shows that the bundle\u2019s packaging advertizes it as the full game. In reality, the Save the World mode wasn\u2019t actually part of the deal. \u201cIt\u2019s still happening. Microsoft\u2019s Fortnite bundle says it comes with the \u201cfull game\u201d and 2000 V-Bucks, but it only comes with a download code for Battle Royale and the V-Bucks,\u201d the post from readit_later stated. \u201cThis is misleading advertising and preys on the parents who don\u2019t know any better.\u201d In reaction to that, Epic_Boomer provided a response from the developer which was very much in line with concerns from the public.

We will also make sure that all future players who claim the Eon Bundle will be granted access to Save the World moving forward.\u201d Some buyers may have realized that Save the World wasn\u2019t part of the deal after activating the code, and Epic says those people will be granted an additional 2,000 V-Bucks for their troubles.
