Dredge's mobile release delayed until February 2025, but a new closed beta is now open!
Fans of Black Salt Games' Lovecraftian fishing horror, Dredge, will have to wait a little longer to cast their lines on mobile. The mobile port has been pushed back to February 2025. However, the delay comes with good news: a new closed beta is now open for registration!
For the uninitiated, Dredge casts players as a fisherman in the eerie town of Greater Marrow. What begins as simple fishing quickly descends into a chilling encounter with bizarre sea creatures, mysterious entities, and unsettling events on a nearby island. The game's unique blend of fishing and Lovecraftian horror has garnered significant critical acclaim.

A worthwhile wait
Having experienced Dredge on PC, the delay is expected. Porting such a rich and detailed world to mobile is a significant undertaking. But based on the original release, the mobile version promises a substantial and engaging experience. The extra beta testing phase is a smart move, providing Black Salt Games with crucial player feedback before the official launch.
