MINTROCKET, the developers of Dave the Diver, recently held an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session on Reddit, revealing exciting news about the game's future. Key announcements included a new story DLC slated for release in 2025, and the confirmation of new games currently in early development stages.
The AMA addressed numerous fan questions regarding expansions and sequels. The developers expressed their continued dedication to the Dave the Diver universe and its characters, promising ongoing content updates. While specifics about the new games remain scarce, the team confirmed a separate team is actively working on them.
The session also highlighted Dave the Diver's successful collaborations with other game franchises. Previous partnerships, such as the "Dave & Friends" update featuring Balatro from Godzilla, and the crossover with Goddess of Victory: Nikke, were discussed. The developers shared anecdotes about initiating collaborations, including a humorous account of contacting Dredge's Discord server. Future collaborations remain a possibility, with the team expressing interest in titles like Subnautica, ABZU, and BioShock, along with further collaborations with artists.
Despite the game's popularity, an Xbox release remains unconfirmed. While the developers aim for broad accessibility, current development priorities, including the story DLC and new game projects, preclude immediate work on an Xbox port. They assure fans that any news regarding an Xbox release will be announced promptly. This clarifies earlier speculation about a July 2024 Xbox launch, which ultimately proved inaccurate. While disappointing for Xbox players, the possibility of future availability remains open. The focus remains firmly on the upcoming story DLC and the exciting new projects in the pipeline.
