Natsume revealed Reel Fishing: Days of Summer, the latest game in the Reel Fishing franchise, which began with the original Reel Fishing video game on PlayStation in 1996 in Japan.
Reel Fishing: Days of Summer is a fishing simulation game that will allow players to go on a fishing trip with three of their in-game friends before summer ends. Players will be able to go fishing at 14 different locations and catch more than 40 species of fish. Plus, players will be able to craft more than 70 kinds of tackle that can help them catch fish.
“Reel Fishing was released in North America in 1997 and was the first fishing game to offer a photorealistic fishing experience with a strong focus on nature,” said Hiro Maekawa, President & CEO of Natsume, in a press release.
“Players loved this new style so much that Reel Fishing was one of the first fishing games to sell over one million units on PlayStation! We are excited to continue the legacy of this great series with Reel Fishing: Days of Summer.”
Reel Fishing: Days of Summer will be released on Switch, PlayStation consoles, Xbox consoles and PC in summer 2024, though an exact release date hasn’t been announced as of this writing.
