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 surrounding a desolate archipelago. Your initial task seems simple: catch fish and trade them with the island inhabitants. However, maintaining and upgrading your boat, exploring the archipelago's mysteries, and facing the unsettling events that unfold at night will quickly complicate matters. What lurks in the fog?

As previously reported, the mobile port of Dredge faced delays, initially slated for February 2025. However, the iOS App Store listing has been updated with the new February 27th release date. The Android Google Play listing is not yet live, but hopefully, that will be updated soon.

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

With its charming low-poly aesthetic and engaging visuals, Dredge is poised to become a mobile gaming favorite. Many players eagerly anticipate its arrival after the long wait.
