Hot Trends: Humble Bundle teams up with WB Games

The WB Games Humble Bundle is supporting the We Can Be Heroes charity and has already raised more than $1.5m.

WB Games has received the pay-what-you-want bundle treatment in the latest Humble Bundle.

The bundle features Batman: Arkham Asylum, F.E.A.R 2, F.3.A.R and Lord of the Rings: War in the North as standard and Batman: Arkham City and Scribblenauts Unlimited for anyone paying over the average.

All the titles are available on Steam for Windows with Batman: Arkham City also available on Mac.

At the time of writing, the average amount paid is $4.62 and just over 330,000 bundles have been sold. It has already raised more than $1.5m in a single day. The top two contributors have paid $2,500 and $2,100 respectively for the bundle.

In a slight twist from normal Humble Bundles, the WB Bundle is supporting a single charity, We Can Be Heroes. This charity aims to provide funds to tackle the hunger crisis in the Horn of Africa. Proceeds can also still be split between the developers and the Humble Bundle team itself.

The Humble Bundle team started out with purely indie titles filling the pay-what-you-want packages but has more recently been testing bundles with more traditional triple-A titles. It has struck deals with Deep Silver, THQ and in one of its most successful bundles, EA.

Alongside the main Humble Bundle, the team also runs a weekly sale which at present is featuring a Team 17 collection with titles from the Worms, Alien Breed and Superfrog franchises.
