This is a great initiative. There’s nothing worse than buying a game digitally only for it to go on sale hours or a few days later.
With the massive Epic Games Stores sale that’s going on at the moment, it appears that Epic has introduced a new initiate that will refund gamers if they purchase a game just before it goes on sale.
In an email sent to Twitter user Joshua Boggs, the email reads: You recently placed orders from the Epic Games Store. The price of the game(s) you purchased were recently lowered, so we are issuing partial refunds for the difference(s).
Whoa whoa what?! I’ve clearly been around for too long because I find this refund for a discount I missed on the ?@EpicGames? store absolutely mind blowingly generous. This is incredible? pic.twitter.com/eHfcus5E0K

The Epic Games Store’s official refund policy meant that gamers could previously just refund a game and re-purchase it, but this is a lot more consumer friendly as it looks after gamers regardless of whether they know about the newly discounted price or not.
Coupling this with the fact that the Epic Games Store is giving away a bunch of great games every week, it looks like they might start turning more gamers onto the side of being happy to use the storefront.
