July 2026 Humble Choice

The latest selection also includes Drop Duchy: Complete Edition, Dicefolk, Our Adventurer Guild, TUNIC, and four additional PC games.

The July 2026 Humble Choice lineup is now available, offering eight PC games for $14.99. Unlike a traditional subscription library, the included games remain in your collection after they have been claimed, even if you later cancel your membership. The current selection will be available until August 4.

Leading the month is obviously Sea of Stars: Sunset Edition, Sabotage Studio’s turn-based RPG inspired by the 16-bit era.

Sea of Stars new DLC

Combat combines traditional party commands with timed button presses that can strengthen attacks or reduce incoming damage. Players must also pay attention to enemy “locks,” interrupting powerful abilities by using the correct combination of damage types before the countdown expires.

The Sunset Edition represents the game in its most complete form. Released as the final major update in June, it introduced revised balancing for Normal and Hard modes, new artwork, and an opening cinematic that provides additional context for the world and its past heroes.

The current Steam version also includes the free Throes of the Watchmaker expansion and support for local cooperative play.

Drop Duchy

While Sea of Stars is the most recognizable turn-based game in the lineup, it is far from the only relevant inclusion. Drop Duchy: Complete Edition mixes falling-block puzzles with deckbuilding, resource management, and roguelite progression.

Instead of clearing lines, players place terrain, buildings, and military units to construct a functioning realm and prepare for battles. The Complete Edition contains the base game, The Tribe and The North expansions, and the soundtrack.

The next turn-based RPG in the package is Dicefolk, which offers a different kind of tactical roguelite, built around customizable dice and a roster of more than 100 collectible Chimeras. Each creature brings its own attacks and abilities, while different talismans alter the available dice faces and the overall structure of a run.

Building a complementary team is important, but so is adapting to whatever commands appear during combat.

Another strong pick for strategy RPG players is Our Adventurer Guild. As the new master of a struggling guild, players recruit and train adventurers, select classes, craft equipment, and send parties on increasingly dangerous assignments.

Missions unfold through grid-based tactical battles, while morale, personality traits, and relationships influence how individual adventurers develop over time.

Then we got TUNIC, an isometric action adventure centered on exploration, secrets, and environmental puzzles, while Neon White combines first-person shooting with speedrunning stages where weapons can be discarded to perform special movement abilities.

Police Simulator: Patrol Officers provides a more methodical open-world experience based on everyday police work in the fictional city of Brighton. Finally, Sledders is a physics-driven snowmobile simulator featuring large backcountry environments, licensed vehicles, and online multiplayer.

The complete July 2026 Humble Choice lineup includes:

  • Sea of Stars: Sunset Edition
  • TUNIC
  • Neon White
  • Police Simulator: Patrol Officers
  • Drop Duchy: Complete Edition
  • Sledders
  • Dicefolk
  • Our Adventurer Guild
