About a year ago, it was reported in the media that some Redfall buyers did not receive a refund for the canceled DLC, and it seems that it took Bethesda another full year to refund some players.
A Reddit user with the nickname WestDraw3952 shared an image of a physical refund for the Redfall DLC. Yes, Bethesda actually sent a physical check in 2025 — with the inscription "Redfall: Bite Back DLC refund."
The user clarified that the refund amount was $30 — the cost of the Bite Back DLC — and, apparently, it was originally purchased in physical format, hence the method of refund. Now it looks strange: receiving a refund for a part of the game by mail, especially in the era of digital purchases.
The story of Redfall is gradually coming to an end. The game, designed to be a cornerstone of the generation, has become a symbol of bad decisions, and even the founder of Arkane criticized the closure of the studio, calling it "stupidity" and a "bad move." The refund is perhaps the final touch in a failed story that will forever be remembered as one of Microsoft's biggest mistakes.
