It’s been a pretty good year for New Zealand studio Black Salt Games. The company’s debut release, Dredge, launched to critical acclaim and recently topped 1 million sales, smashing internal expectations.
Now, the team have expanded the cosmic fishing adventure with the launch of a new expansion called The Pale Reach. The add-on, however, represents a swift change in direction for Black Salt, which initially planned to release a different expansion dubbed The Iron Rig before temporarily shelving that plan due to production concerns.
