2.359 Patch: New Year Edition Update

Hello fellow anglers,
The New Year Edition is now available in the game.

This update comes with some major changes that we are experimenting with to improve the experience of players who have recently started to explore the fishing world of Real VR Fishing.

As a long-time player, you will not be affected by these changes, but in fact, when a new DLC gets added to the game, you will not have to struggle anymore to level up to be able to use the best graded equipment that you already own, and you will have more freedom to start fishing in your most preferred location.

Here are the changes that come with this new edition:

1. The 10 US West Revisited locations have been added to the base game, and the name to access them has been changed to US West Free. These are the locations:

• East Boulder Lake
• Lake Powell
• Diamond Lake
• Wild Horse
• Kee Beach
• Kaena Point
• Lewis Lake
• Mirror Lake
• Smith River
• Snake River

*Please note that these 10 locations were added as a free bonus to the US West DLC, therefore, they were never included in the price for US West to begin with.

Since they were added as a free bonus, we thought why not make them available for all players instead, so that new people coming to Real VR Fishing can get a preview of the US region in Real VR Fishing.


We are planning to do the same with four NEW free bonus locations for Japan that we will start releasing one by one on a monthly basis starting in February.

The 4 Japan bonus locations that we are working on are:

• Ueno Park
• Ebisu and Daikoku
• Oshima Bridge
• Lake Toya

*We will be sharing previews of these new locations each month in our Communities in Facebook and Discord

2. Level-locked conditions have been removed. These include:

• The level restrictions to access new locations. Now players are able to access all the locations they own.
• License level restriction on items (rods, reels, baits, etc). Now players are able to buy any item, and equip any item that they own from level 1.
• The level restriction to start accessing lodge B (saltwater aquarium). Now players are able to access Lodge B and the Saltwater Aquarium from level 1.

With these major changes we hope that both new players and long-time members of the Real VR Fishing community can continue enjoying the game even more.


Additionally, with this update we have addressed some issues shared in the community.

Bugs and improvements:


Multiplayer:

• Multiplayer friend invite feature has been fixed and now you should be able to invite your friends to a multiplayer location.
• The issue with Japan Part 2 location 5 (Lake Inawashiro) in Multiplayer has been fixed.
  
  

Sound:

• Some issues in the display of the sound settings at the main settings in the lodge have been fixed.
• Casting sound has been moved to SFX.

Other bugs:

• The issue where the Fish Professor’s achievement was abnormally counting fish has been fixed.
• The baitless fishing bug has been fixed.
• The issue with something blocking the access to the door in Lodge B to move to Lodge A has been fixed.
• Some other minor bugs have been fixed.

We truly hope that with all these changes, improvements and upcoming new content, we can provide a much better experience in Real VR Fishing.

Thank you for your encouraging support!
