Calling all fishing enthusiasts and horror aficionados: the wait for the eldritch fishing simulator, Dredge, is finally over. Mark your calendars for February 27th, as Dredge sets sail on mobile devices after several shifts in its release schedule.

In Dredge, you step into the boots of a nameless fisherman navigating the eerie waters around a desolate archipelago. Your mission? Catch fish to sustain the island's inhabitants. But the game goes beyond simple fishing; you'll need to manage your sanity while dealing with boat maintenance, upgrades, and exploring the archipelago's mysterious happenings. And beware, as something unsettling lurks in the night fog.

As previously reported, Dredge's much-anticipated mobile version faced delays, with an initial target of February 2025. Now, with the iOS App Store listing updated to reflect the new release date, the wait is almost over. Although the Android Google Play listing is yet to go live, the excitement is palpable.

Oh I do love to be beside the seasideAside from the thrill of fishing, Dredge offers an intricate upgrade system and a deep dive into Lovecraftian horror. While details on DLC are scarce, the main game already boasts several expansions that expand the archipelago's mysterious allure.

With its unique low-poly yet engaging visual style, Dredge is poised to become a beloved title among mobile gamers. The final release date is set, and the anticipation is high.
