IGN Acquires Humble Bundle

Humble Bundle have announced that they have been acquired by well-known gaming and entertainment media company IGN.

In a statement on the Humble Bundle blog (appropriately named “Humble Mumble”), Co-Founder and CEO of Humble Bundle, Jeffrey Rosen, states that things will continue as normal but have more resources and help from IGN, who he says really understand the Humble Bundle vision, share their passion for games, and believe in the mission to promote great digital content while also helping charity.

Time will tell as to whether this partnership will go as smoothly as expected, especially given the number of negative comments below the announcement post, but I very much hope that it does indeed keep to its vision and mission that helped make it popular in the first place.
