After venturing to a new icy biome and collaborating with Dave the Diver, Black Salt Games’ Dredge will receive its second paid expansion on August 16th. The Iron Rig will be available for $11.99/€11.99 and takes a rather interesting approach. Check out the reveal trailer below.
Available at any time during the story, the premise involves working with Ironhaven Corporation on its oil rig. However, things go wrong, impacting previous areas with a dark liquid originating from the “primordial depths.” Players must revisit previous areas, collecting over 50 new fish to assess the damage and save the region.
As you build up the new base, a new tier of fishing equipment is available alongside gadgets, abilities and more. There are also new characters, hazards and world events to experience, with two to five hours of playtime in total.
Team17 has also announced that pre-orders are available for a physical Collector’s Edition of the game on PS5 and Nintendo Switch, including all the DLC and a special box for $99.99. Extra goodies include a Sign of Ruin replica, a poster, a compendium of the many fish and variants, a doubloon coin, a map and a message in a bottle. Pre-orders are limited to specific countries, but more are coming soon.
