Dredge, the eldritch fishing sim, is set to hit mobile later this month with new release date

The unsettling fishing simulator Dredge sets sail for mobile devices on February 27th! After several release date adjustments, this Lovecraftian fishing adventure is finally ready to cast its line on iOS and Android.

Initially slated for a February 2025 launch, the mobile port has been significantly expedited. The iOS App Store listing reflects the new February 27th release date, though the Android Google Play listing isn't yet updated.

More Than Just Fishing

Dredge offers more than just the usual fishing game experience. Players take on the role of an unnamed fisherman navigating a desolate archipelago, selling their catch to the island's inhabitants. However, maintaining and upgrading your boat, exploring the islands' mysteries, and facing unexpected nocturnal encounters in the fog add layers of depth and suspense.

The game features a surprisingly detailed upgrade system and a healthy dose of Lovecraftian horror. While details on potential DLC remain unannounced, the core game already boasts expansions that broaden the archipelago's scope.

Its low-poly visuals create a captivating aesthetic, promising to make Dredge a mobile gaming favorite. For more on upcoming game releases and general gaming news, check out the latest Pocket Gamer Podcast.
