Professional Fishing 2, a new installment of the popular fishing series, is planned to be released on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. The developers promise a great attention to realism, extensive fishing grounds, varied tasks to perform, both first-person and third-person perspectives, and even elements of survival gameplay and hunting, among other features. The game will offer both single-player and multiplayer modes. It will be available this September in early access on PC. Professional Fishing 2 will also arrive on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. The console versions are planned to be released in 2024.
Professional Fishing 2 is being developed by Polish studio MasterCode. The game will be published by Ultimate Games S.A. The first title in the series was released in 2018 in a free-to-play model, and it was positively received by players. Currently, positive reviews make up 76% of all (nearly 3,200) reviews on Steam. The new installment will be a paid game.
Professional Fishing 2 is a realistic fishing game focused on both the single-player and multiplayer experience. As announced by MasterCode, the new installment will be even more realism-oriented than the first game. The developers have announced new features such as larger fishing grounds, more fishing methods and fish species, as well as far more extensive multiplayer modes.
The new game will also feature survival and hunting elements, and an important role will be played by moving between fisheries in one’s own vehicles or by public transport.
For the Steam Early Access release, the developers are preparing one very large map, characteristics of which are based on Central and Eastern Europe. The final version of the map will cover a dozen or so square kilometers, and it will have various bodies of water, including small and large lakes, various rivers, ponds, oxbow lakes, and the sea.
“We will include many new features in Professional Fishing 2. For instance, players will be able to choose if they prefer first-person or third-person perspective. In addition, the multiplayer modes will include duels, tournaments, leaderboards, and other interesting features, while those who prefer playing alone will be able to enjoy loads of exciting challenges,” says Mateusz Zawadzki – CEO of Ultimate Games.
A free demo intended to give a taste of the full version will be released on PC this July. It will allow the players to familiarize themselves with one of the game’s regions. The demo will not be time-limited and will feature a single-player mode with online functionality.
