Howdy Anglers!

We’d be delighted to get your vote for Steam’s Labor of Love award. Over the last 2+ years of development, we’ve been dedicated to creating the fishing game that you want to play. In that time, we’ve brought you countless new features and squashed loads of bugs by listening closely to your feedback.

From Norway to Spain to South Africa to Japan, our team has strived to bring you an authentic and immersive fishing experience all over the world. Each new reserve has brought new species both big and small and over the years their appearance and animations have only gotten better and better.

You’ve found creative new ways to play, including but not limited to flipping your Ultra Cruiser boats and fishing off the top of them, using boats to bridge over waterfalls, and riding on top of your LakePal bait boats… Okay y’all really like messing with the boats!

Both stylish and truly unsettling outfits can be seen all over the hub with everything from anglerfish masks to pj’s to cowboy boots. The non-bald anglers out there can now wear hats (without becoming balded anglers) and some anglers even take their shoes to run through the grass barefoot (we don’t judge).

We’ve put love into bringing something unique to our Winter, Halloween, and Anniversary events and were excited to see your ghost fish and celebrations together! We’ve improved the multiplayer experience, adding Time of Day matchmaking, so that you can fish whatever time of day you’d like, gave you multiplayer party functionality, and added a match fishing competition-style feature.

With countless features coming out over the past 2 years, the most recent ones have been huge asks from the community. You asked for rod holders and now you got it! We’ve added animations for reeling in your fish before your trophy screen. And last but certainly not least, our latest fish variations feature added MILLIONS of fish and crustacean variations with unique colors, patterns, and scars for each species. It’s extremely unlikely you’ll see the same exact creature twice!

We are incredibly grateful for all of your support over these last couple years and it would mean a lot to get your vote.

Thank you <3

Hey Anglers!


In this patch we've added the remaining fish variations to the Norway, Spain and South African reserves.

• Fixed an issue with the Short Locs hair customisation, it should no longer break when the player is wearing a hat
  
• Amemasu hook and bait compatibilities have been changed. We have removed Bloodworm & Eggs, and increased the hook range.
  
• Fixed an issue with trophies on PS5.
