Humble Bundle’s recently redesigned storefront has eliminated the two-factor verification management interface from its settings page, according to reports from gaming media outlets. Users previously had the ability to add and configure two-factor authentication methods through the old version of the website, with support documentation still available discussing the feature.
Despite the removal from the settings interface, some form of two-factor verification appears to remain operational on the platform. Testing of account access revealed that users are prompted to verify login attempts through email-based access codes. However, the verification process does not appear to be functioning as comprehensively as it may have previously. Password updates can be performed without entering the existing password, and rotating two-factor codes that may have been configured on the previous version of the site were not requested during the login verification process.
The change raises questions about the security infrastructure supporting user accounts on the platform. IGN Entertainment, which owns Humble Bundle, and its parent company Ziff Davis have not yet provided clarification regarding the decision to remove the settings interface or the current status of two-factor authentication features. The discrepancy between documented two-factor verification support and the unavailable management tools suggests the redesign may have been incomplete or that the feature set is undergoing transition.
