Humble speaks out on Humble Bundle shutdown fears after ‘restructuring’ layoffs

Shock layoffs at indie publisher Humble Games will have “no impact” on its sister digital games storefront Humble Bundle, the company has suggested today.

Humble Games laid off its entire 36-staff workforce on July 23. While this very much seems like the end of the road for the coveted indie publishing label, Humble calls it a “necessary decision to restructure our operations.” Humble’s corporate jargon on X consciously avoids mentioning the company’s plan with remaining projects. However, according to the management meeting recording (courtesy of Aftermath), a third-party company named The Powell Group will take over current games in Humble’s publishing pipeline.
