Dredge: The Pale Reach is the first expansion to Dredge, an RPG with horror elements released in March 2023. It was developed by Black Salt Games, just like the base game, and was published by Team17.
Dredge: The Pale Reach introduces a new storyline, which we can play through at any point of the base game. It's set in an icy area hiding a great secret. Following the trail of the previous crew to sail these waters, we learn about bitter betrayal and the place we're in.
Dredge: The Pale Reach adds about 1-3 hours of playtime, depending on our playstyle and pace. Aside from new quests, there's also four new equipment items and eleven new types of fish to catch. There's also a new, extremely useful boat expansion, capable of breaking ice. Players can also purchase blocks of ice, which make fish spoil slower.
Dredge: The Pale Reach is not a standalone expansion and requires the base version of Dredge.

Game Ratings for Dredge: The Pale Reach Video Game.
GamingTrend: 75 / 100 by Jackson Lustberg
If you're a fan of Dredge, then I would recommend The Pale Reach without hesitation, it's a good piece of new content to sate your appetite until Ironhaven releases. However, keep in mind that this DLC won't change your experience of the main game all that much if you've already completed it, it just gives you another chain to explore. All in all, it's like adding another puzzle piece to a completed puzzle.

DREDGE The Pale Reach DLC doesn’t add much new to an already solid formula. There are new fish to discover, new rods to collect and a cool new tool for your ship. It’s about an extra two hours of gameplay to add to the main content. If the main game hooked you, this DLC is well worth dredging up your copy of the game from your backlog to play.
Use a Potion: 8 / 10
The Pale Reach stands out as an impressive piece of DLC for Dredge, with all of its extras complementing the satisfying (and endlessly eerie) fishing action of the base game. It is worth noting that it doesn’t try to change things up too much and its two-hour runtime is on the short side, but with a L5.99 price point and the same rewarding sense of discovery players would’ve experienced in the base game, it’s hard to complain too much. It has certainly got me excited to see what else Black Salt Games have up their sleeves for Dredge, with its future a bright one if this is anything to go by.
