Dredge content appears as a bundled component of Dave the Diver across two 2026 releases. The Dredge content pack is included day one with the Dave the Diver mobile version, and the DREDGE collaboration is collected in the Dave the Diver Complete Edition package for PS5.
Dredge's current presence on Yomimono's beat is as a collaboration inside another game, not as a standalone release. Two Dave the Diver stories mention Dredge content, and both treat it as packaged extra rather than a separate product.
The mobile version of Dave the Diver, announced on August 13, 2026 by Nexon and MINTROCKET, includes the Dredge content pack from day one. That version launches for iOS and Android on September 17, 2026, is free to start with an in-app purchase to unlock the full game, and drops alongside the In the Jungle DLC, which released in June 2026.
Two months later, Arc System Works released the packaged Dave the Diver Complete Edition for PS5 on October 8, 2026, priced at 6,380 yen. That edition collects the additional content distributed so far, among it the DREDGE and Godzilla collaborations and Ichiban's Holiday with Like a Dragon's Ichiban Kasuga. So Dredge content now sits in both a mobile free-to-start release and a retail PS5 package, with no standalone Dredge title named in either story.

Playway S.A., Code Horizon, and Feflik Games announced Gold Dredge Simulator, a dredge mining sim where players revive an abandoned, beat-up boat and collect placer gold from the riverbed. Players gather parts one by one, sell recovered gold, and reinvest profits into boat and equipment upgrades, replacing worn parts as they go. Manual operation and a modular design let players customize the boat's layout and condition. It supports online co-op and is scheduled for Steam in 2027 with Japanese support.
