Dave the Diver is a casual, deep-sea exploration RPG where you can fish during the day and run a sushi restaurant at night. Since it’s release in 2023, the game has done very well, so it only makes sense that we get a physical release in October, which you can pre-order now.
We previously reviewed Dave the Diver:
“Dave the Diver on Xbox is a delightful, content-rich adventure that blends exploration and management into a uniquely satisfying package. It’s funny, charming and endlessly replayable, with a gameplay loop that’s hard to put down. But it also invites reflection on how games use nature as a mechanic, and what that says about our relationship with the real oceans. For many, the commodification of animals will fade into the background of the fun — yet for others, it may linger as an uneasy undertone in an otherwise brilliant gem.”
Dave the Diver is an exceptional adventure — but do darker themes linger beneath the surface?
Along with the physical release of the game, there is a Complete Edition for those who are looking to get a little bit more. This version of the game includes the In the Jungle DLC, DREDGE DLC, Godzilla DLC, Ichiban’s Holiday DLC, GGST DLC, and a digital soundtrack, so that you have every possible amount of extra content currently in the game.
The Dave the Diver’s Collectors Edition Box Set has all of those DLCs, along with a bunch of little bonuses for those who like collecting and physical merch. This includes an acrylic standee of Bancho Sushi Restaurant, four metal pins, an acrylic keyring, a dolphin pendant necklace, two marinca cards, a poster and four postcards. All of these bits of merch look high-quality and feel like they’d be very fun for collectors! This version also comes in a very well designed box.
Dave the Diver is a fantastic game, so having a bit of merch and a physical version of the game can be exactly what fans and new-players alike are excited for.
