What is Humble Bundle?
Humble Bundle, along with Steam, is one of the official stores where BeamNG.drive can be purchased through.
The Humble Bundle purchase of the game includes:
- An activation key to redeem the game on Steam
- Download to the Installer version of the game (DRM Free)
- Download to the ZIP version of the game (DRM Free)
You can use the one you prefer.
DRM Free means, in short, that you don’t need to use third-party programs like Steam to download and play the game. However, you’ll need to manually update your game. Please read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_rights_management
