Certainly an interesting selection of games included in Humble Choice for June, so here's what's in it and what compatibility to expect.

Below I will note each game you can get included plus the Steam Deck rating, any ProtonDB rating if there is one (or if it has Native Linux support) and each is a Steam link if you need more info first. This is the monthly bundle that you can subscribe to allowing you to claim all of the games included each month with a fresh set, and it also gives you a Humble Store discount (bigger discount up to 20% if you stay subscribed to it for longer).

Out of these, I've only played the Lego racing game. It's a perfect little game for the Deck! Runs well, and is very arcadey and fun which is great for short sessions. Definitely recommend.

In my case test some time ago and runs very well (need some custom settings in my case)

curiously i think my vega 7 igpu (oc 2300mhz) must be have a bit more performance than steam deck igpu rdna 2 (1600mhz), thinking about frecuency


vega 7 renoir igpu

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/amd-renoir.g1058

Pixel Rate: 17,96 GPixel/s
Texture Rate: 62,89 GTexel/s
FP32 (float): 2.012 TFLOPS


steam deck igpu

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/steam-deck-gpu.c3897

Pixel Rate: 25.60 GPixel/s
Texture Rate: 51.20 GTexel/s
FP32 (float): 1.638 TFLOPS


and on cpu also must be have a bit more performance (ryzen 5 4600 6c/12t 4300mhz in all cores) vs steam deck 4c/8t 2.4ghz frecuency base - turbo at 3500mhz


ryzen 5 4600G

Looked at the reviews out of curiosity and it's full of microtransactions and grinding. The bundle is actually great deal as it contains the costly DLC, which probably make the game probably much better. I wonder if they're using the bundle to get some positive reviews to balance out the current negative ones.

I had interest initially when it got announced. Then i saw that it requires a 3rd party: 2k account. And since then its on my ignore list.

I bought the bundle that contains all the dlc for a HUGE discount some time ago, I think I paid $20 total for it. Played it a bunch and haven't been inundated with in-game dlc or mtx at all. Honestly I don't even know what's the core game or what's the dlc.

As far as grinding ... maybe? It's an arcade racer, so for me its fun to just turn off my brain and drive a silly car that transforms into a 4wheeler that transforms into a speedboat and crash into stuff and beat opponents. It's silly and ridiculous and fun and I love it.

I honestly don't even remember anything about the 2k account. I guess I signed into it when I initially launched it, but ever since, every time I launch the game it just boots right into it like any other game.

The game asks you to log-in/create a 2k account for cross platform multiplayer and cross platform save states. But you can skip that if you don't want to use these features.
