Humble Choice has had some strong months, but May 2026 might be its best lineup in years. Anchored by Diablo IV — Blizzard's AAA action RPG that retails for $79.95 AUD — and backed by the excellent Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance, this month's bundle offers a combined retail value of over $338.60 AUD for around ~$22.99 AUD/monthHumble Bundle. We played through every title to give you an honest rundown.
Total Playtime
183–372+ hours
Worth it? Unequivocally yes. Diablo IV alone costs more than three months of Humble Choice. Add SMT V: Vengeance at near-AAA pricing and the remaining six games — ranging from good to great — and this bundle represents exceptional value for any PC gamer.
Game-by-Game Reviews
The anchor of the entire bundle. Blizzard's gothic action RPG is a technically polished, endlessly replayable loot machine. The base game delivers a strong campaign across five acts, and the seasonal content has only improved since launch. A few monetisation gripes with the in-game shop keep it from a perfect score, but at bundle price this is an absolute steal.
The definitive version of one of Atlus's best JRPGs. Vengeance adds a brand-new Canon of Vengeance route that doubles the story content of the original SMT V, plus quality-of-life improvements across the board. Dense, demanding, and deeply rewarding — this is the standout title of the bundle after Diablo IV, and arguably the better game.
A visual showcase even today, and a competent sci-fi shooter with a satisfying sandbox approach to combat. The remaster brings lighting and texture upgrades that make Prophet's journey through the overgrown New York dome look genuinely stunning. Short campaign and dated AI hold it back, but it's a worthwhile blast-through for FPS fans.
A deep and addictive roguelite dungeon crawler with excellent co-op support. The town-building meta layer gives your runs a satisfying sense of progression between deaths, and the tight pixel-art combat holds up across dozens of hours. Easy to drop in with friends and dangerously hard to put down.
A solid if unspectacular tower defense with a Norse aesthetic and satisfying wave escalation. Nothing here will surprise veterans of the genre, but it's well made, well balanced, and a decent palate cleanser between the heavier titles in the bundle. Gets harder and more interesting the further you progress.
A pirate-themed tactical roguelite with stylish turn-based ship-to-ship combat and a crew management layer that adds meaningful decisions between encounters. The art direction is excellent and the tone is fun. Doesn't quite nail the pacing in later runs but offers genuine strategic depth for fans of the genre.
A colourful voxel sandbox that sits somewhere between Minecraft and No Man's Sky in ambition. The exploration and building loops are enjoyable and the procedurally generated worlds are genuinely varied, but a lack of clear direction in the mid-game can leave solo players directionless. Better with friends.
A charming, low-stakes city builder with accessible mechanics and a satisfying loop of expanding your settlement across hand-crafted island maps. Not trying to be Anno or Frostpunk — it's a relaxed, thoughtful puzzler dressed as a colony sim. A genuinely pleasant surprise tucked at the back of the bundle.
How Much Game Time Are You Getting?
Across all eight titles, a single playthrough of every game's main content would take somewhere between 183 and 372 hoursHowLongToBeat — and that's before Diablo IV's endgame, seasonal content, and Heroes of Hammerwatch II's deep run variety add hundreds more. Realistically, if Diablo IV hooks you, you're looking at 100+ hours in that game alone. Add SMT V: Vengeance's 80-hour campaign and you have over six months of evening play from two titles.

Summary
Humble Choice May 2026 is a standout month. The combination of Diablo IV and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance alone makes this one of the strongest anchor pairings the service has ever offered — two lengthy, critically acclaimed gamesOpenCritic that together retail for $169.90 AUD. The remaining six titles aren't filler either: Heroes of Hammerwatch II is genuinely excellent, Rogue Waters and Mini Settlers are pleasant surprises, and even the middling entries (Nordhold, Cubic Odyssey) are competent games in their genres.
If you don't own Diablo IV and have any interest in action RPGs, this is the easiest subscribe recommendation of the year. Even if you already own one of the top two, the supporting cast makes the price trivially justifiable. Subscribe before the end of May to lock these in.
