Dredge Mobile Port Delayed to Next Year; Closed Beta in December

If you were eagerly anticipating diving into the eerie waters of Greater Marrow in Black Salt Games' Lovecraftian-inspired fishing horror game, *Dredge*, we've got some news for you. Unfortunately, the highly-anticipated mobile port of *Dredge* has been delayed until February 2025. However, there's a silver lining: Black Salt Games has announced that sign-ups are now open for a new closed beta to accompany this delay.

For those new to the game, *Dredge* puts you in the shoes of a fisherman in the town of Greater Marrow. Initially, your tasks are simple—catching fresh fish to sell to the townsfolk. But soon, you'll encounter weirder creatures from the ocean depths, mysterious beings, and all sorts of monstrous weirdness. There's also the looming threat of losing your sanity and strange occurrences on a mysterious nearby island...

You can sign up for the new closed mobile beta of *Dredge* using this Google form. Despite the delay, the game's numerous awards, critical acclaim, and accolades indicate that it's definitely worth the wait, especially if you haven't yet had the chance to play it.

Having experienced *Dredge* on PC myself, I can say that such a delay is understandable given the expansive world that needs to be adapted for mobile devices. If the mobile version mirrors the depth and quality of the original release, players can look forward to a wealth of content to explore. The decision to conduct another closed beta is also a wise move, as it allows more players to provide feedback and get a taste of this unique blend of horror and fishing.
