Dredge was a highly-anticipated game long before its release thanks to an incredible Steam Next Fest demo in late 2022. Part survival-horror game and part fishing simulator, Dredge is the exact kind of left-field experiment in genre mixing on which the indie game scene thrives, and in execution, it's astoundingly addictive. Like Vampire Survivors before it, Dredge is one of those indie titles that players have to be careful with, lest they end up sinking several hours into a single session. It's a perfect game for both the Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch as well, with its excellent visuals and lighting truly shining on a handheld console. The game has already received The Pale Reach DLC this year and a crossover with Dave the Diver is set to arrive soon, meaning anyone who hasn't played Dredge yet has the perfect excuse to see what all the hype is about.
