T_T too late to see this. I don’t fancy this month’s bundle but I forgot to pause until I saw the Paypal bill T_T plenty to give away this month.
For those wondering about the Hitman 2 selection, it’s the Standard Edition Bundle, coming with:
Santa Fortuna
Hawke’s Bay
Himmelstein
Isle of Sgail
Miami
Mumbai
Whittleton Creek
The Hitman 2 Standard Edition was $60 when it came out. If you already have the previous episodic game (Hitman, but not the old school original Hitman) you’ll get those levels upgraded for free in Hitman 2. At that point you’ll own most of the recent Hitman content, minus a few costumes and gadgets - which are available on Steam.
i believe were getting a bonus game for april, but i dont see anything yet. hope its sumthin good.
May Choice is up :
Not bad at all. I am in for Rise of Industry, Jurassic World Evolution, Niche and Warhammer 40K : Gladius.
Interestingly, when I went to claim my choices I was told “Thanks for being a loyal subscriber.” and given a key for Train Valley 2, listed under my April Choice bundle. So maybe they’re starting to do bonuses for not pausing?
As usual, I already own about half of the interesting stuff on that list. But the other half is way more than $12, so, still a good deal.
Great bundle, unpausing this month.
Wow your bonus game for April was train valley 2? That’s awesome. Is it the same for everyone?
Edit: I guess I could answer that question
Edit 2: yep, same for me
I might bite. Gladius looks cool. As is X-Com 2. What else is good on the list?
The grandfathered subscription is such a great deal. I just decide whether to unpause for a month, get my games if I want them, then immediately repause. It’s fantastic.
Hmm, this is a tough call. It’s a good bundle, but I already own Gladius (which is a highlight here), Niche (which I’ve struggled to get into, but looks cool) and XCOM 2 (which I’m not a fan of). I’ve been somewhat discouraged by gameplay and reviews of Jurassic World.
Can anyone speak to the other stuff here? Rise of Industry looks interesting. Sword of Ditto looks like it might be a litle Cat-Quest-ish, which would be good. Not familiar with most of the others.
That feeling when you already own 8 of the things in the bundle.
Jurassic World is better than people might expect. Of course, it’s the expansions that really make it.
Yeah Train Valley 2 for free is nice!
Ohhh an excellent month for me.
I got it for Gladius and a a pair of others, although I had XCom2 already.
It’s strangely focused on strategy genre, 8 of 12 are strategy games. Xcom2 mentions dlc but it isn’t the actual expansion that is the thing worth it. The chess game is just another chess game, people who are interested in playing chess surely have already a similar game, and for the rest, well I doubt it’s going to be picked a lot.
And finally, Horace was free on the EGS.
Ok, I thought I was going crazy, because I could swear they have given Xcom2 before…
yes, they did, more than two years ago:
Is this the first time they are repeating, without any excuse, a game already given in the monthly bundle? I thought they said they would never do that?
Definitively the quality of the bundle has lowered, since it was acquired by Ign.
Ah, but you aren’t required to pick up X Com 2. So they can freely double up on games now, as long as there are enough unique games to fill the limit.
I think I brought up this very point.
By all means XCOM 2 alone (given that it includes all the dlc except for War of the Chosen) is compelling. Does 2K let you do the “complete your collection” thing with their games in case of a good Steam sale?
I’ve already got all things XCOM 2 so the only things of interest to me there are the Warhammer 40k game and maybe Rise of Industry. Probably will stay unpaused for those.
