The Humble Choice September 2026 Lineup Is Live With Frostpunk 2, Sonic X Shadow Generations, and 6 More Games

As September arrives, the Humble Choice lineup for PC gaming enthusiasts has been released, offering a diverse selection of games for just $14.99. This month's offerings include Frostpunk 2, Sonic X Shadow Generations, and Voidtrain, with an additional four titles rounding out the 8-game collection. The deal presents an excellent opportunity to expand a PC game library at a discount compared to purchasing each game individually.

In addition to the games, members who sign up for the Humble Choice program will receive a free month of IGN Plus, up to 20% off in the Humble Store, and a 5% contribution to charity. The August donation went to Make-A-Wish, an organization that grants wishes for children battling critical illnesses.

Among the games, Frostpunk 2 and Sonic X Shadow Generations receive special praise. Frostpunk 2, reviewed by Dan Stapleton, received an 8/10, with its complex political and social themes making it a standout sequel to the original. Sonic X Shadow Generations, reviewed by Jada Griffin, earned a 9/10, with its extended campaign, polished level design, and superior graphics elevating the original game to new heights.

Hannah Hoolihan, a freelancer for IGN's guides and commerce teams, notes that this lineup provides a variety of gaming experiences, catering to both those seeking a cozy gaming experience and those craving more action-packed gameplay.

If your file-guard hook is registered on Read, it never sees cat

Then I asked it to read the same file with cat . The hook was never called. Not "called and passed" — never called. The contents went straight into the transcript.

  • File-guard hook blocks access on Read via cat
  • Hook fails to fire on Read via Read tool
  • Deny rule applies per-file, not command-specific
