This time, however, Humble Bundle might be taking things a step further still, because a recent leak suggests that Crusader Kings 3 and Just Cause 4 may be the September headliners. Said leak comes from a user of the French deal website, Dealabs, who had been posting clues about this month’s Choice for some time before revealing four of the allegedly featured games.

Alongside Crusader Kings 3 and Just Cause 4, billbil-kun also claims that the September edition of Humble Choice will feature The Dungeon of Nahulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos and Forgive Me Father: an RPG and an FPS, respectively. While there’s currently no real way for anyone to corroborate billbil-kun’s claims, the four mentioned titles wouldn’t be too out of place as part of Humble Choice, considering the impressive selection of Humble Choice August titles.
The September 2022 Humble Choice should be going live later today, at 6 PM UTC on September 6th, which means it won’t take long before the leaker’s claims are either shot down or fully verified, but it’s worth remembering that Paradox Interactive often uses promotional devices such as Humble Bundle to get more eyes on its flagship titles. In 2021, players could claim Europa Universalis 4 for free via the Epic Game Store, which could be interpreted to give more credence to billbil-kun’s claims.
On that note, Humble Bundle has almost always had extremely value-minded offerings on sale in the past. One recent example is the special Resident Evil Humble Bundle, where players could get 10 RE games for just $30. Seeing a Paradox Interactive flagship such as Crusader Kings 3 as part of a new Humble Choice listing wouldn’t be awfully out of place, keeping that in mind.
Despite its name, Humble Choice doesn’t actually force subscribers into choosing which games they unlock, and which they have to ignore. Following the simplification and streamlining of Humble Choice, all subscribers get to immediately unlock all eight featured games upon payment. Most notably, this does mean that even if billbil-kun’s leak is entirely correct, then there are four more unrevealed games getting bundled with the four revealed ones, though it’s likely that they’ll be indie and/or AA productions, considering the previous Humble Choice offerings.
