Dredge's mobile release delayed until February 2025, but a new closed beta is now open for sign-ups!
Fans eagerly awaiting the mobile port of Black Salt Games' Lovecraftian fishing horror, Dredge, will need to wait a bit longer. The launch has been pushed back to February 2025. However, to soften the blow, Black Salt Games has opened sign-ups for a new closed beta test.
In Dredge, players become a fisherman in the eerie town of Greater Marrow. Initially, the job involves simple fishing and selling to locals. But soon, the waters reveal strange creatures, mysterious beings, and unsettling events on a nearby island, threatening the player's sanity.
Sign up for the closed mobile beta via this Google Form. Despite the delay, the numerous awards and critical acclaim Dredge has received suggest it's a title worth the wait, especially for those who haven't experienced it yet.
A Challenging Port
Having played the PC version, the delay is understandable. Adapting such a large and detailed world to mobile is a significant undertaking. The additional closed beta is a smart move, allowing for valuable player feedback before the full release. This ensures a polished and enjoyable experience for mobile players.
