About Dave the Diver
Dave the Diver is an adventure RPG that follows Dave, the owner of a Japanese restaurant. The gameplay is split between daytime dives to explore underwater mysteries, hunt for fish, and discover treasures, and nighttime restaurant management. Despite the repeating gameplay loop, players can look forward to encountering new characters and discovering different fish species each day.
The game has been regularly updated with new content, including collaborations with DREDGE, adding dark fantasy fishing quests, and crossovers with the Like a Dragon franchise. Fans can also enjoy themed content from Godzilla, along with both free and paid DLC updates.
The mobile release promises to continue this trend, allowing players to enjoy Dave’s underwater world anywhere. More details, including pre-registration and regional availability, will be shared by Mintrocket as the launch approaches.
