The diving/restaurant management roguelike Dave The Diver had us hooked (heheh) when it swam onto Switch earlier this year, but now things are set to get a whole lot more spooky as its collaborative Dredge DLC (yes, the Lovecraftian fishing game) has sailed into view today. Enough nautical puns for you? We’ve got more…

This collaboration was first announced at The Game Awards, but today it’s finally here and we get to see what’s actually going down. For reel.

Dave the Diver’s latest update (ver. 1.0.0.511) covers all things Dredge, adding in special features like new characters and weather systems, a fresh ‘Dredge System’ where you get to drive Dave’s boat about in the hunt for the perfect diving spot, a batch of creepy sea creatures and a whole lot more.

All of this comes alongside the usual tweaks and fixes, of course. The full patch notes for this update were shared by Nexon on the game’s forum and we have hauled them in for you to check out below. Update ahoy!
