Publisher Digital Vortex has announced they’ve picked up publishing for Dream Dock’s Lovecraftian fishing game DREADMOOR.

DREADMOOR will be published by Digital Vortex when it launches for Windows PC (via Steam), with a release now set for 2026.

“We’re building an IP that goes far beyond fishing in the apocalypse,” said Rostislav Fedorov, CEO at Dream Dock Studio in a press release. “Partnering with Digital Vortex Entertainment allows us to scale production, refine the vision, and bring DREADMOOR’s madness to a global audience.”

Digital Vortex CEO Alex Izotov added, “At Digital Vortex Entertainment, we were captivated by Dream Dock’s clear vision for the game and their approach to creating a haunting fusion inspired by Lovecraftian horror and post-nuclear survival. It’s a unique and powerful project, and we’re excited to help bring their dark and beautiful world to a wide audience.”

Here’s a brief blurb on the previously announced game, plus a new trailer:

DREADMOOR quickly made a splash among fans of dark, atmospheric adventures: just 10 days after its announcement in April 2025, the game amassed over 40,000 wishlists, and already ranks in the top 600 most-wishlisted games on Steam with minimal marketing thus far. This strong interest has set a positive trajectory for the title, with a clear roadmap aiming for its full release in Q4 2026.

DREADMOOR is a dark first-person horror fishing adventure game. Anglers explore both land and sea, fishing for a wide variety of aquatic creatures lurking in the depths, and fighting their way through a flooded wasteland filled with danger and mystery. The game draws inspiration from titles like DREDGE, Metro Exodus, and Resident Evil. It features cinematic storytelling, psychological tension, crafting, and addictive fishing mechanics.
