    It's made with a true fisherman at heart. If your looking for arcade style fishing game this isn't your cup of tea. If your someone who will sit in the cold and rain for four hours for just a hope of a bite you'll love this game. As an advid fisherman I truly recommend this game!

    For those seasoned anglers, you’ll appreciate just how much detail went into the over 1000 items, nearly 150 fish, numerous fishing holes and detailed gameplay. While I may be a fishing beginner, I really appreciated just how in-depth The Fisherman: Fishing Planet really was while also never feeling too overwhelmed with its steady mission structure or the option to freely do whatever I want and still progress. If you’ve been curious about the sport, or simply can’t wait until next summer to do the real thing, The Fisherman: Fishing Planet has more than enough content to keep you busy until the next fishing season begins.

    If you want a fishing game then Fishing Sim World is still the daddy, however if you want to try something different, then The Fisherman – Fishing Planet just might scratch that itch.

    No, it's not a new game technically, but it's already reached all consoles. Developed by Fishing Planet LLC and published by BigBen Interactive, this is one of the most complete fishing simulators that we can find so far in the market. The Fisherman: Fishing Planet comes with a lot of DLC's and expansions for Xbox One, that were previously released on Steam worth 400€.
