For all you fishing aficionados eager to dive into the eerie depths of the sea, the wait is finally over. The highly anticipated eldritch fishing simulator, Dredge, is set to make its mobile debut on February 27th, after enduring several shifts in its release schedule. This game promises to immerse players in the sanity-shredding isolation of the deep sea, offering a unique blend of fishing and psychological horror.

In Dredge, you assume the role of a nameless fisherman navigating the waters around a desolate island chain. Your primary task is straightforward: catch fish to sustain the island's inhabitants. However, the game deepens as you manage your sanity, upgrade your boat, and unravel the mysteries shrouding the archipelago. And what's that lurking in the fog at night?

As previously reported, Dredge's mobile version faced a delay, pushing its release to February 2025. But that time is nearly upon us. The iOS App Store listing has been updated to reflect this new release date, although the Android Google Play listing has yet to go live.

Aside from the traditional joys of fishing, Dredge offers an engaging upgrade system and delves into Lovecraftian horror elements. While there's no official word yet on additional DLC, the main game already features expansions that expand the archipelago's narrative and gameplay.

With its low-poly yet captivating visual style, Dredge is poised to become a beloved staple for mobile gamers. The anticipation for its arrival is palpable, and it's clear that this game will offer a unique experience on mobile platforms.
