Humble Square Enix Bundle 2 Features 'Thief,' 'Tomb Raider,' 'Hitman' And More

The Humble Bundle is a terrific endeavour that provides gamers with some exciting videogames for a song and enables them to feel good about the steal by diverting some of the proceeds to charity. That's a win-win situation by any standards. This time, it is back with the second iteration of a bundle specifically made for Square Enix games.

Dubbed Humble Sqaure Enix Bundle 2, it is an impressive compilation of some of the best AAA offerings from the house of Square Enix. According to VG247, the bundle includes hit releases such as "Tomb Raider" (2013 reboot), "Thief (2014 reboot)," "Hitman: Absolution," "Sleeping Dogs," "Supreme Commander 2," "Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Director's Cut," "Murdered: Soul Suspect" and "Hitman GO."

As usual the bundle allows gamers to decide the price they would like to pay for three games, which include both Android and PC version of "Hitman" and "Supreme Commander 2." In effect, you can purchase these three games for as little as one cent. However, the Humble team doesn't solely rely on the goodness of people's hearts. The bundle incentivises those who pay more by adding various perks and extra games to lure gamers into being generous.

For example, paying $1 or more allows a buyer to claim the games on valve's Steam platform, in addition to the regular DRM-free direct downloads. Those who pay higher than the average price paid across the board are given access to "Thief," "Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Director's Cut" and "Murdered: Soul Suspect." The average price has been set at $6.5 as of this writing. Additionally, some of the better games in the bundle, such as "Sleeping Dogs" and "Tomb Raider" are available for those who pay $15 or more.

The Humble Bundle has been one of the best options in the video games industry to successfully combine a commercial endeavour with a great example of charity. The concept is quite different from the traditional digital distribution format. In fact, it makes little commercial sense at the outset, but it has proven to be a commercial success over the course of many bundles.

The best part of this endeavour is that buyers can choose how the money is distributed between the game developers, the Humble team and two charities. The charities benefitting from the proceeds this time are the Make A Wish Foundation and Games Aid, which are dedicated to making like better for children.
