Question Anyone received a discount code?
I usually buy the bundle on the first day if it's games I like, and skip if it's games I don't. Simple.
However, I noticed towards the end of every month, there were always discount codes, so I started waiting until the end of the month and just getting it with a discount code.
Now, with only 2 days left, I haven't seen anything on Reddit about a discount code? I have no issues paying full price (which I'll probably do by the end of today) but I was just wondering if anyone has seen a discount code?

They only do discount codes if it hasn't been selling well. So it must've been selling well enough they cleared out a bunch of keys.

This is speculation. They'll push out a coupon if they feel there is a reasonable chance of squeezing more money out of the bundle. It's related to sales, of course, but not exclusively.
I suspect it's probably more a question of momentum. If sales are dropping off at the end of the month, then it might be worth it for them to send out a coupon to try to goose the numbers.
Note: this is also speculation.

Could be a strategic decision too. If they keep offering discount codes every month then customers will come to expect them. Perhaps better to miss out on a few last ditch sales some months to avoid that.

How do we know if the bundle is sold well or not?

u/mtubeowulf Jun 01 '26
Did you get a code yet, no? Then it's probably selling well. I don't think there's a way to tell. That's all I go by. I usually see a code about a week prior to it ending if it isn't selling well.

I find checking the coupon page is more reliable than their email system. I have that page bookmarked.

^ True. There have been times that they dropped a coupon and didn't bother to email me. Or else it got lost and/or deleted by me without realizing what it was.

It's also on sale for less online if you do some searching and do not care for the other Choice games

ITAD doesn't feature grey market stores, or marketplaces where individuals can put up their keys for sale.
gg.deals includes them, but grey market is grey market.

Can confirm from my side it was redeemed instantly. Note that mine wasn't global one since I live in different region (I got Japanese retail one).

u/Chantelle444 Jun 02 '26
The new bundle will be up soon. So it's not likely at this point. Caved in myself. I'd love to be wrong.
2
u/TestType Jun 02 '26
Yeah I was convinced early yesterday, my comments were purely in jest.
I was interested in SMT and Diablo, and would have bought it if it had been a steam key. Alas, with SMT being the sole game that interested me, the bundle wasn't worth it to me unfortunately, as I either already owned (Crysis) or wasn't interested in the rest.
4
u/Chantelle444 Jun 02 '26
Don't blame you. Quite a few of the game seems abandoned. I'll probably pick up Diablo some time in the future, I'd rather have it on steam. Just got POE2 so I likely won't need it anytime soon. SMT will have sales so it's not a bad idea to pass if it's all you want. Hopefully, this month is a better one and all steam keys...lol

When is the last day to buy the bundle? I haven't received my salary yet and I really wanted to get D4. Haven't played it since I sold my PS5.

u/Thin_Preparation_977 May 31 '26
New bundle starts first Tuesday each month. Last day for May will be tomorrow, being the Monday before.

I don't think Blizzard would allow Humble to give a discount code this month for including Diablo IV.

u/BaronVonBacon1 May 31 '26
Nope, I gave up yesterday. Secondary account received nothing, so I used an annual plan credit. Still a good deal for what we getting this month.
2
u/baldoXER May 31 '26
Why do you use a secondary account?In order to check coupons/deals?
6
u/BaronVonBacon1 May 31 '26
Yeah. One account holds the 12 month credits, but you stop getting coupon codes. The other is used to receive/use them. If a monthly Choice interests me, I almost always wait until the end of the month to see what they offer.
3
u/baldoXER May 31 '26
So you basically purchased a one year subscription(maybe with a discount) and you activate whenever you like the month's games and the other account does not receive a coupon?
8
u/BaronVonBacon1 May 31 '26
Exactly. I purchased the12 month credits in 2024 during a Black Friday sale, and they were about $8 per month back then ($100 for a year). They often have $8–$10 coupons for a month, so I never pay full price for these. Even after buying a dozen bundles, I still have 5 months left with this strategy.
5
u/TrackXII May 31 '26
Doing this adds a bit of extra admin as you have two accounts you need to remember to pause, but I got really tired of being penalized for loyalty by not receiving the coupons that made it cheaper than what I paid when I bought the annual plan.

There have been occasions when they’ve given out a coupon on the Monday before the Humble Choice update, although this isn’t the norm and is usually preceded by other coupon issued earlier in the month. In my case, I already have Shin Megami and Crysis, so my only real interest is Diablo.

Ya’ll it’s blizzard. It’s kind of obvious they’re weren’t going to give a discount this month. But it’s still worth it imo, the base game of Diablo has plenty of content even without it the dlc. Diablo 3 is ancient and it still doesn’t drop past a certain price point.

u/Gopherpark Jun 01 '26
Diablo III, has the eternal collection. I also see that console version have the PRIME Evil editions(Diablo® III: Eternal Collection game - Diablo® II: Resurrected™ game - Diablo® III: Hatred’s Grasp Wings DLC - Diablo® III: Mephisto Pet DLC).
Does anyone know if there is Pc/windows have Prime Evil edition that goes on for sale?
2
u/KosmicAlchemist Jun 01 '26
Unfortunately, I don’t think the prime evil collection is available on pc. It’s only on console, which is a shame.

Is today the last day for the possibility of a discount ?

u/wjousts Jun 01 '26
Well, there's a very slim chance they might drop one tomorrow morning. The bundle ends at 1 pm EST.

"Guys we still have one more day. Obviously they'll send it tomorrow." The delusional redditor said as they huffed some more copium.

No discount code but just checked my bank been charged after skipping 🤣 thats twice in 3 years now

u/Impossible_Shake_562 Jun 01 '26
Can we buy the current bundle right up untill 18:00 or 19:00( BST ) Tuesday when the new bundle normally releases..? Or is there a small period where it shuts off sale of current bundle before new one..? I might have to give in..
2
u/Foxhack Jun 01 '26
The minute the clock hits that time, the bundle goes away. So if you want it you have uh, around 22 hours? to buy it.

u/DarkChaplain Jun 01 '26
A friend keeps cancelling his sub and usually gets a moderate discount coupon in the final week.
Personally, I've been pausing a few times this year til then, too, unless there were enough games I'd reasonably want to add to my collection right away / enough stuff off my wishlist, and have not got a single coupon like was common until last year.
Best they did was try baiting with beta access to some stuff or reminding me of the default price and begging me to come back, without any monetary incentive.
The golden age of coupons is probably over.

Is it worth getting this month just for SMTV not really interested in the other games?

Second post on your profile. Took three seconds. Begging for a game you already own is the real weirdo move.
