Fishing fans rejoice as Ultimate Fishing Simulator has released its next DLC! And it’s a big one, taking anglers to the shores of Florida to hook their next catch.

The new Florida DLC focuses on sea fishing, where players can hunt for tiger sharks, blackfin tuna, blacktip sharks, black drum and many more. Eleven of these will be brand-new species to the game.

“We have prepared a unique fishery for players, modelled after areas of the Florida Keys and Dry Tortugas Park. This is a great location for sea anglers who like to catch ‘nice’ fish or face the tiger shark. We have specially prepared 12 new realistic models for this DLC, and the map – as the first in the history of UFS – has the seabed mapped on elevation (bathymetric) data, covered with a coral reef!” says the COO of Ultimate Games S.A., Rafal Jelonek, in a statement.
