Even though July has been with us for over a week, it doesn't mean that we can't still celebrate the entire month. That's what Humble Bundle is currently doing as they released a brand new trailer showing off their PC games (and comic) of these 31 days. These titles are available to those that have a monthly subscription to the discount website. There are multiple options for signing-up but the service will run you between $11-12 USD each month with an additional 10% off the Humble Store.
The games of July are:
- Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin
- Galactic Civilization 3
- Hyper Light Drifter
- Armello
- SimplePlanes
- Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter
- Kero Blaster
- 2000:1 A Space Felony (exclusive to the Humble Bundle site)
The curation of games is quite interesting from established AAA franchises such as Dark Souls to cult indie hits such as Kero Blaster to complete unknowns (at least to me) such as Armello. The group of games apparently comes to a value of around $200 USD which isn't too bad for a dozen bucks a month. But of course your mileage may vary.
The monthly sub also comes with a few extras. There are two bonus games in the form of the return to classic isometric RPGs with Pillars of Eternity and some surprising sports representation with NBA 2K17. There's also the first three issues of Kevin Eastmen's comic Underwhere which is also a Humble Bundle original. It should be noted that all games remain yours even if you cancel your subscription making much different than the console monthly services.
The July trailer is available below with clips from the above games. Was this line-up enough to make you a convert? Are you going to wait until August to see what other goodies they have in store or is it just not your jam? As for now, I think I'll stick to the individual bundles that jump out at me.
