November 2026’s Humble Choice Bundle Out Now

We’re creeping up on the end of 2026 now, folks. Whether you consider that a blessing, a curse, anything in between, or any combination thereof, we can’t deny that 2027 will soon be upon us. What’s upon us right now, however, is the penultimate Humble Choice bundle of 2026. The bundle is live now and will remain available for purchase until Tuesday, December 1st, 2026 at 10 AM PT. We’ve got the usual eight games on offer, though only seven of which are redeemable on Steam this time, plus the traditional one-month subscription to IGN Plus. On with the list!

First up is Mafia: The Old Country, developed by Hangar 13 and published by 2K. This bundle also includes the “Gatto Nero Pack” and “Padrino Pack” downloadable content packs. Mafia: The Old Country will expect players to “uncover the origins of organized crime in a gritty mob story set in the brutal underworld of 1900s Sicily.” You’ll also need to “fight to survive as Enzo Favara and prove your worth to the Family.” Should you fail to impress the Family, I’m sure they’ve already come up with an era-appropriate euphemism in place of “waste management” to explain how they’ll (presumably) dispose of you.

Next up is the only one out of this bundle’s allotment of games that can only be redeemed via Blizzard’s Battle.net platform rather than Steam. It’s The Outer Worlds 2, developed by Obsidian Entertainment and published by Xbox Game Studios. The only thing the Steam Store says about The Outer Worlds 2 is that it’s “the sequel to the award-winning first-person sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment,” which is not exactly helpful if you haven’t played the first game (as I haven’t). For transparency’s sake, I should mention that The Outer Worlds 2 currently has “mixed” reviews on Steam; do with that what you will.

Game number three in month number eleven’s bundle is Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, developed by Lizardcube and published by Sega. Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is the latest entry in Sega’s series of action-platformer titles, which has technically been ongoing since the arcade release of the original Shinobi in 1987. Shinobi: Art of Vengeance makes a point of touting its “unique hand-drawn look created by the team behind the hit brawler Streets of Rage 4.” I’m afraid I can’t speak to that to any extent, since I’m unfamiliar with both the Shinobi and Streets of Rage franchises. I should address that someday.

Game number four, whose title should have rightly made it sixth in this bundle, is the second of this assortment published by Sega. It’s Yakuza 6: The Song of Life, developed by RGG Studio. Yakuza 6: The Song of Life requires players to “Step into Japan’s criminal underworld in this explosive action brawler starring legendary yakuza, Kazuma Kiryu, who is hellbent on unraveling the truth around his daughter’s tragic accident.” I thought the only songs Kiryu would sing are the ones he wrote about smashing people’s faces in with any nearby object he can lift, but apparently I’m mistaken on that.

The fifth entry this month is Crisol: Theater of Idols, developed by Vermila Studios and published by Blumhouse Games. Crisol: Theater of Idols describes itself as “a survival horror adventure set in a twisted version of Spain” in which, “as a soldier captured by religious dogmatism, you must use your own blood as ammunition, without draining to the point of death. Explore the cursed island of Tormentosa, uncover dark secrets, and battle horrifying enemies.” Naming the island “Tormentosa” strikes me as a bit uninspired, but the whole “using your own blood as ammunition” thing is, as the youth would say, “metal as heck.”

Number six this time around is Space Haven, developed and published by Bugbyte Ltd. I see what they did with their name, and I appreciate it. In Space Haven, you’ll have to “embark on a space voyage with your ragtag crew of civilians in search of a new home” as you “build spaceships tile by tile, create optimal gas conditions, manage the needs and moods of their crew, encounter other space-faring groups, and explore the universe.” If you ask me, space could only be a haven if it were still “the one place that hasn’t been corrupted by capitalism,” but oh well.

November 2026’s penultimate Humble Choice offering is Dysmantle, developed and published by 10tons Ltd. It appears as though Dysmantle sets a lengthy list of tasks before players, most of which are scarcely longer than a single word: “Ascend from your shelter. Ruin everything. Escape the wretched island. Explore. Fight. Level up. Survive. Gather. Craft. Harvest. Hunt. Build. Farm. Solve puzzles. Fish. Cook. Live. Enjoy the bittersweet post-apocalypse.” To be honest, Dysmantle, you had me at “ascend from your shelter and ruin everything.” I don’t get the chance to do exactly that nearly as often as I’d like, much to my own disappointment.

Last up this time around is Squeakross: Home Squeak Home, developed and published by Alblune. The term “Squeakross” is a portmanteau of “squeak” and “Picross,” which explains why Squeakross: Home Squeak Home will have you “solve and transform 800+ puzzles into furniture to decorate the perfect home for your rodent friend.” You’ll also get the chance to “collect hundreds of decorations, accessories, and stickers.” Well, that sounds like a wonderfully cozy game to curl up with if you live in a hemisphere currently experiencing winter! On that note, I shall return when the year’s final Humble Choice bundle is live!
