New Modes, New Creatures and Monsters Added in Latest ‘DREDGE’ Update [Trailer]
The second free update for Black Salt Games’ Lovecraftian fishing game DREDGE is now live, bringing with it additional two new modes in the Passive Mode and Photo Mode, as well as new deep-sea aberrations, wildlife events, and a new monster.
The addition of a photo mode has been a regularly requested feature since DREDGE launched back in March, but the developers have added a bit of a twist with their version. Before players can get to snapping pictures of nautical life while visually documenting their findings on the open sea, they’ll first have to fish for a piece of equipment and exchange it with a new islander, a photographer, for the new device.
Meanwhile, for those gamers who are more into a casual sailing of the open sea and fishing, and wanting to avoid the Eldritch horrors in DREDGE, there’s the new Passive Mode. This new update to DREDGE also introduces a further 10 aberrations ready to be caught, together with their less frightful counterparts, as well as new wildlife events to observe. And of course, there’s a new monster from the deep that’s also been added for those looking for more Lovecraft content.
Still to come is the paid DLC pack later this year that introduces the mysterious Ironhaven Corporation.
DREDGE is available now digitally on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch.
We’ll be waiting a little while longer for developer Studio Cut to Bits’ gothic Metroidvania Venture to the Vile. Originally slated to launch on PC via Steam on May 7, the game has now been pushed a couple of weeks to May 22. The PlayStation release of Venture to the Vile is still expected later this year.
In a press release, Venture to the Vile producer Masao Kobayashi explains the decision to delay the release, stating that while Studio Cut to Bits is made up of industry veterans, this is the first time that the team has released a game as indie developers. As such, the team encountered a few hurdles leading up to the original release date.
“We all love Venture to the Vile and want to make sure we are delivering the best possible game we can for our players. For this reason, we have decided to delay our game by two weeks. I’m sorry to those who have been anticipating our game but I assure you it is going to be worth the wait.”
Venture to the Vile centres on the town of Rainybrook, where an unknown darkness is taking over, transforming anything and anyone it touches. Fortunately for you, you seem to be unaffected by this presence. However, your friend Ella is nowhere to be seen. You must brave the horrors and find her.
