The acclaimed fishing horror adventure drops to just $9.99, but you'll need to act before November 5.
If you've been circling Dredge on your wishlist for a while, now is arguably the best time to finally take the plunge. Black Salt Games' eerie fishing adventure is currently 60% off on Steam, bringing the price down from $24.99 to just **$9.99**. According to SteamDB, the deal is set to expire on November 5, 2026, so there's a reasonable window — but not an unlimited one.
A Fishing Game With a Dark Twist
On paper, Dredge sounds like a cozy management sim: you captain a fishing trawler, explore a remote archipelago, catch fish, sell your haul, and upgrade your boat. In practice, it's something far stranger. The game blends relaxed fishing mechanics with a creeping sense of dread, as fog, darkness, and things lurking beneath the surface turn each voyage into a tense gamble.
You'll encounter a cast of island inhabitants, take on quests, and slowly uncover the troubled history of the region. There are more than 125 species of marine life to catch, plus equipment upgrades and new abilities that help you push further into dangerous waters. The main story runs roughly 9 to 10 hours according to HowLongToBeat, though completionists will find plenty more to do.

What Players Are Saying
With over 57,660 reviews on Steam and a 95% positive rating, Dredge has clearly struck a chord. Players consistently praise its mysterious atmosphere, tight gameplay loop, and striking art direction. The story and visuals also come up frequently in positive reviews.
It's not flawless — some players note that quests and the fishing mechanics can feel repetitive over time. But for the asking price of $9.99, those complaints are easy to overlook, especially for a game that PC Gamer called "a fantastically twisted fishing horror full of charm."
Where to Grab the Deal
