Horror fishing game Dredge gets its first expansion in November
It has dredged up a release date.
Black Salt Games and Team17 have announced that the first expansion DLC for the nautical horror game Dredge is set to release for all platforms on November 16, 2023. The Pale Reach will have sailors exploring a frozen a new “icy expanse.”
The Pale Reach adds a new arctic biome. You’re tasked with following in the footsteps of a doomed expedition. I’ve read At the Mountain of Madness. I know exactly how this is going to turn out. In this new region is 11 new species of aquatic life, as well as their twisted aberrant alternatives.
That’s all I got. It’s more Dredge. Here’s the trailer:
I reviewed Dredge when it launched back in March. I wasn’t too impressed. I summed it up by saying, “It’s hardly condemning to say, ‘this fishing game is about fishing.’ I’m mostly trying to stress that, ‘No, this is really about fishing.’” Because, like, it looks like a horror game – and it is – but it’s less unraveling a mystery and more selling the catch of the day. I felt that the fishing got a bit repetitive over time, and everything around it was a bit shallow.
I’m not really certain if The Pale Reach expansion is going to do anything to fix that, but a lot of people enjoyed Dredge for what it was, so that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
The Pale Reach is coming to Dredge on November 16, 2023. It will run you a reasonable $5.99.
