bundle
A package of several products sold together, often at a lower price than if bought individually. Bundles are especially common with software, video games, and electronics.
Die neue Spielekonsole ist im Bundle mit zwei Controllern und einem Spiel erhältlich.
The new game console is available as a bundle with two controllers and one game.
'Bundle' is a word from English that was adopted directly into German. It is therefore also pronounced as in English.
Das Software-Bundle enthält drei Programme zum Preis von einem.
The software bundle contains three programs for the price of one.
The word is almost always used with the preposition 'im' or 'als'. 'Im Bundle' means 'as part of a package', while 'als Bundle' describes the form of the offer.
Das Spiel ist im Bundle mit der Konsole günstiger.
The game is cheaper in a bundle with the console.
Common verbs in connection with 'Bundle' are 'anbieten' (to offer), 'kaufen' (to buy), 'verkaufen' (to sell), or 'erhältlich sein' (to be available). The context is usually marketing, gaming, or technology.
Man kann das Handy mit passenden Kopfhörern im Bundle kaufen.
You can buy the phone in a bundle with matching headphones.
package
'das Paket' and 'das Bundle' can both mean several things offered together as one unit. But 'Paket' is much more general: it can be a package sent by mail or a group of offers, measures, or things. 'Bundle' is used especially when several products are sold together, often with software, games, or electronics. Learners may confuse the words because a 'Bundle' often functions like a 'Produktpaket' (product package). If it is about shipping, only 'Paket' fits. If it is about a combined sales offer, 'Bundle' often sounds more modern and technical.
Für das neue Spiel gibt es ein Bundle mit Konsole und zwei Controllern.
