Humble Choice’s May Bundle Is Brutal – Diablo IV Comes With A JRPG Heavyweight And An FPS Legend

Humble Choice’s May lineup looks like one of the stronger months for the service: the bundle includes one of the biggest names in dark action RPGs, a remastered FPS classic, and one of Atlus’ strongest modern JRPGs. Those three headline draws are joined by five more PC games, so this month is not trying to carry the whole offer on a single title.

 

Humble Choice’s May selection immediately looks like one of the stronger months, because the bundle does not rely on one big name. Instead, it places several very different headline games next to each other. Diablo IV is Blizzard’s dark fantasy action RPG, built around demon-slaying, loot hunting, and seasonal content. Alongside it, there is Crysis 3 Remastered, Crytek’s flashy sci-fi shooter in updated form, and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, Atlus’ expanded, richer, multiplatform JRPG, driven by demon fusion, turn-based combat, and a post-apocalyptic Tokyo that was never designed as light evening comfort.

The May offer shown in the image is advertised at €12.99, while Humble also highlights that the annual plan works out to less than $13 per month. With this lineup, that matters, because the three biggest games are all recognizable titles on their own. Put them together, and the question is less whether there is value here and more when anyone is supposed to find the time to actually play all of it. Humble Choice still works around monthly PC game selections that subscribers can claim, while membership also brings Humble Store discounts and supports charity through part of the Humble model.

Based on the games shown in the May Humble Choice lineup, the full selection includes Diablo IV, Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, Crysis 3 Remastered, Heroes of Hammerwatch II, Nordhold, Rogue Waters, Cubic Odyssey, and Mini Settlers. Heroes of Hammerwatch II works the roguelite action RPG lane, Nordhold attacks from the tower defense side, and Rogue Waters adds pirate-themed turn-based roguelite tactics to the package. Cubic Odyssey and Mini Settlers may look smaller next to the bigger names, but those are exactly the kinds of titles that can quietly eat an evening after someone only meant to test them for five minutes.

That makes May’s Humble Choice a strong offer not only for players who have been waiting to jump into Diablo IV, but also for anyone looking for a remastered sci-fi shooter or a darker, sharper JRPG at a good price. The package covers big-budget action RPG territory, remastered FPS spectacle, Atlus-style demon hunting, roguelite action, tower defense, tactical piracy, and smaller strategy-flavored side roads, so the spread is wide without feeling random. This is not a month where the headline game does all the work and the rest looks like filler: the big names carry the poster, but the complete list is dense enough to put Humble Choice’s May bundle firmly on the radar for PC players.
