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

The highly anticipated eldritch fishing simulator, Dredge, is finally setting sail for mobile devices on February 27th! After several release date shifts, fishing aficionados can prepare to experience the sanity-bending isolation of the deep sea.

In Dredge, you'll take on the role of a nameless fisherman navigating the treacherous waters around a desolate archipelago. Your initial task seems simple: catch fish and trade them with the islanders. However, maintaining and upgrading your boat, exploring the archipelago's mysteries, and facing the unsettling nocturnal encounters will quickly complicate matters.

As previously reported, Dredge's mobile port faced delays, initially slated for February 2025. The iOS App Store listing now reflects the updated February 27th release date, while the Android Google Play listing is expected soon.

Beyond the casual fishing fun, Dredge offers a surprisingly deep upgrade system and a generous helping of Lovecraftian horror. While details on potential DLC remain scarce, the main game already boasts expansions that significantly broaden the archipelago's scope.

With its charming low-poly aesthetic and engaging visuals, Dredge is poised to become a mobile gaming favorite. For those eager to learn more about upcoming releases and general gaming news, check out the latest Pocket Gamer Podcast featuring Will Quick, Catherine Dellosa, and myself.
