Multiplayer in Bassmaster Fishing 2022 is new, exciting, and huge. The team is excited to announce that Cross-Play is coming to Bassmaster Fishing 2022! This means you can play with anybody who has the game, no limitations to platform.

Bassmaster Royale is the new adrenaline pumping mode coming to the fishing game space. The aim of the game is to spawn in, find your hot spot, and catch more fish than the other players to avoid being eliminated in the 4 culling events that take place throughout the match. Survive the culling events and you are crowned the Bassmaster Royale Champion.

When starting a match, you’ll spawn into 1 of 3 different spots on the lake each time and race to your hotspots to start hooking bass. Be careful though, other players might be trying to take your spot, so you’ll want to have a game plan as soon as you set off.

By watching the leaderboard you’ll see where you stand within the match if you’re too low down you risk getting eliminated when the next culling event happens. If you get eliminated, better luck next time, if you haven’t been eliminated, then you’ll need to carry on catching more bass than the other anglers and increase your haul.

If you successfully survive all 4 culling events, the player with the heaviest weight at the end is the winner of the game and becomes the Bassmaster Royale Champion. Have you got what it takes to be the last man standing?

How about just relaxing and fishing with some friends? Well, we’ve got that too, if you want a non-competitive environment to explore then you can jump into any of our open lakes in the multiplayer part of our game, find your friends, and start fishing. This is a great mode if you’re just looking to hang out, learn venues together, or simply show off your new cosmetics.

Post launch the Dovetail Games team has exciting plans to bring new modes to multiplayer so players can fish against others to be the Bassmaster Classic® champion online, or where they can become the angler of the month in the Global Dovetail Fishing League!

Whether you’re looking to be the last man standing, the Bassmaster Classic Champion of the world or simply hang out with some friends and relax on the water, we’ve got you covered in Bassmaster Fishing 2022.
