There’s lengthy tutorial missions available but they lack a little context. Newcomers are still left to fend for themselves. It’s satisfying and offers a relaxing time. You have a lot of control over your retrieve and it can feel quite tactile as you reel in with the triggers. Fish, in certain lakes especially, are plentiful and the real challenge comes from trophy catches. The waiting so much associated with the sport is still there but it’s a much more streamlined experience than the real thing. Just pick a spot, wait and then strike when the bite hits. Your rod controls well and newbies have plenty of feedback on hand. Time out on the water is relaxing as you set your equipment up and then cast until dawn. There are some balances to the economy with travel costs but series veterans will have to consider if this package is worth paying for.Īs a fishing simulator, The Fisherman – Fishing Planet builds upon the previous title. Having these immediately available would’ve made this product a lot more justifiable. It comes to you slowly and can be exchanged to purchase the DLC packs at between 1200 or 2000 a pop. This is the premium currency which drops as you complete trips, missions and challenges. This content is still gated by bait coins. Also, you do technically have access to four of the major DLC packs. The free-to-play model handles this by time. Licenses are handled differently with fishing in a locale granted indefinitely once you’ve purchased a license to fish there.

Now the powers that be have decided to deliver a retail version with some exclusive content and four DLC packs. Fishing Planet has been a fairly accomplished free-to-play effort that’s found a home on the Playstation Store for the past couple of years. We’ve all fished in a game at some point but this is my first foray into a dedicated fishing simulator.
