Humble Bundle faced criticism earlier this year when it tried to remove charity sliders from its bundle pages, a decision that would have severely limited the amount players could donate to charity for their purchases. Following significant backlash, Humble Bundle decided to reverse this decision and reinstate the sliders – but it’s once again placing limits on how much can be donated to charity.
In a blog post, Humble Bundle announced it will be rolling out a “new iteration” of sliders in mid-July. “While splits on each bundle will vary, on average there will be a minimum amount for Humble Bundle between 15-30 percent,” the post said. This means users will no longer be able to donate the entire amount to charity, although the company said there will continue to be some “100 percent to charity bundles”.
The company explained that the “PC storefront landscape has changed significantly” since the bundles began in 2010, and it had to “continue to evolve with it to stay on mission.
