Dredge\'s mobile port delayed until next year but a closed beta test is planned for December

Fans of Lovecraftian-inspired fishing horror, prepare yourselves! Black Salt Games has announced a delay for the mobile port of Dredge, pushing its release to February 2025. However, the wait will be eased by a new closed beta with open sign-ups.

Dredge casts you as a fisherman in the unsettling town of Greater Marrow. What begins as simple fishing quickly descends into encounters with bizarre sea creatures, mysterious beings, and unsettling events on a nearby island. The very real threat of losing your sanity adds another layer of dread to this unique adventure.

Sign up for the closed mobile beta via this Google form. Despite the delay, Dredge's impressive collection of awards and critical acclaim assures players that the wait will be worthwhile, especially for those who haven't experienced this captivating blend of horror and fishing.

Having played the PC version, the delay is understandable. Translating such a rich and expansive world to mobile is a significant undertaking. The additional closed beta is a smart move, allowing for valuable player feedback and ensuring a polished mobile experience. This excellent mix of horror and fishing deserves the time and attention to detail.
