Steam now offering refunds for From Dust

25 August 2011

Are you a disgruntled From Dust buyer? Now’s your chance to get that cash back.

According to a report on Rock Paper Shotgun, Steam has officially started offering refunds for the game. Readers have contacted the site, citing the following email received from Steam:

“Ubisoft has just announced that they are working on a patch that will eliminate the need for any online authentication for From Dust. The patch will release in approximately two weeks.

If you don’t want to wait for the patch or if you haven’t played the game, per Ubisoft’s request, we will issue refunds for this title.

If you would still like your purchase of From Dust refunded, please reply to this ticket.”

As the email points out, Ubisoft is working on a patch to remove the controversial DRM, so maybe hang in a bit if you still want to play the game.
