With just over a week to go until Halloween, we’re getting into the SPIRIT of things with our new Monster Sale, available on the Dovetail Store!

As part of the Monster Reward Update, we are introducing in-game clothing rewards for the Dovetail Fishing League. Winning and placing highly in our tournaments now bring you prizes in the form of clothing. Wear them with pride and let everyone in multiplayer know what they’re up against. Winners of weekly events will be awarded a ‘Champion’ t-shirt whilst 2nd and 3rd places will be awarded a ‘podium’ t-shirt. If you finish in the top 5% of all entries, you will earn a ‘series’ t-shirt. The same rewards are in place for the end of each season but hoodies as well as t-shirts are your prize. The clothing will begin to be awarded from the end of the first Dovetail Fishing League season (end of October).
