Fishing Mega-Game Is Coming to Steam in January 2026

Release Your Bait in Fishing Mega-Game
Indie developer Peep has announced that Fishing Mega-Game will launch on Steam in January 2026. This unique fish-collecting, survivor-style adventure allows players to tackle custom difficulty settings while exploring an ocean teeming with challenges. Steam users can wishlist the game now to be among the first to dive in.

In Fishing Mega-Game, you take on the role of an angler who battles fish to catch them, using each catch as bait for the next. The game combines creature collecting with combat, offering dozens of vibrant fish to capture and a variety of ability combinations to unlock. Players must face waves of aggressive fish, each eager to turn the tables. The gameplay features a bullet-hell experience that takes place underwater. Level up your character, discover rare upgrades, and power through hordes of smaller fish before landing the main catch.

Exploration is key. The game features multiple zones filled with fishing spots, NPCs, and upgrade shops. By venturing into new areas, players can uncover permanent upgrades, discover new fish, and receive helpful guidance from local characters.

Custom difficulty adds another layer of strategy. Each fish has a rare “shiny” variant, and catching all the fish in a level unlocks the ability to enchant the waters. This improves your chances of encountering these rare types. Raising the level’s difficulty further increases the likelihood of finding shiny fish, rewarding skilled players.

With over 60 unique fish to collect, each sporting distinct starting attacks and abilities, Fishing Mega-Game encourages experimentation to find the perfect combination for your playstyle. Blending survival mechanics with creature collecting, it draws inspiration from Vampire Survivors and Ridiculous Fishing, creating a fresh, action-packed take on fishing games.
