Humble Bundle are becoming a games publisher
Humble Bundle has now launched their new multi-platform publishing and funding program, which plans to invest millions of dollars into a large variety of PC, console and mobile games.
This will allow Humble to directly support developers before a game’s release and support developers using their marketing expertise and providing access to teams which will help with game ports and localisation efforts.
What publishing allows us to do differently is to help developers prior to release,It also helps us guarantee eager gamers will get to play some awesome games, each affixed with the trusted Humble brand of quality we are known for.
Right now Humble has already announced 7 games that will be published by the company in the near future, with Humble taking new developer submissions at GDC and Pax East.
In a way, you could say we are an ‘a la carte publisher,’ allowing developers to choose what they want out of publishing through us. We then offer funding based on the services they need,We offer a wide range of publisher services with trusted teams to cover ports, marketing, localization, and everything a developer would need to release in today’s global games market
