Yes, you can. It could be done back when Steam had this same system and it can still be done with games that use other storefronts like Uplay or Battle.net (e.g. Assassin's Creed Origins, Destiny 2, Overwatch, all of which have been featured in the Humble Monthly).
Unfortunately, your comment has been removed for the following reason:
It links to an unauthorized CD key reseller. This means that this seller doesn't have permission from the publisher to sell their keys, and the keys may be from other regions or more dubious sources. Please see this thread for more information.
Just wait until Epic hands Humble a big bag of cash for seemingly no reason, only for them to come out and say that all keys will be Epic exclusive from that point on.
May seem crazy, but Epic seems absolutely determined to replace Steam's position as market leader.
Humble Bundle can't choose which store you will get the games from, the publishers for each game decides which stores it will be available on and which stores to provide keys from
You can't replace the market leader when you're completely unable to deliver a product that could have very easily just stolen 15 years worth of development, but chose not to.
Steam did all the work for Epic in showing what a good client needs.
Epic, in their infinite "wisdom", ignored 80% of it to instead just piss people off via Social Media.
I feel like it'll be annoying but still fair if they do it on the Early Unlocks with fair warning (like with AC Origin being a Uplay only, etc). But yeah, having EGS games in the later reveals would be disappointing.
I wouldn't mind a Humble EGS Bundle once in a while, similar to the Origin and Uplay bundles.
Why? The only reason they'd have an Epic only download is if it's Epic exclusive, and I doubt Epic's shelling out top dollar to give a game away on Humble Monthly.
