Fishing simulator games have been popular since Gone Fishin’ was released in 1994 on DOS. Additionally, fishing simulators have come a long way from being stand-alone to mini-games in games like Animal Crossing and Pokemon. Today, we’ll talk about the hottest indie in the market with a question: Is Dave the Diver cross-play?
Dave the Diver is an adventure role-playing game and restaurant management simulator and is a twist on the old fishing simulators. The game is very narrative-driven, and progress is made through main quests. Underwater exploration and fishing throughout the day, and restaurant simulation, cooking meals and serving them to customers during the night. It is a pretty diverse game.

Dave the Diver Cross-Play Support
Dave the Diver is not cross-play, simply because Dave the Diver is a single-player game. Dave the Diver is a narrative-driven game with many cutscenes, fantastic characters, numerous activities, and tons of fish to catch, but it is not a multiplayer experience. The single-player story is a great experience that every adventure role-playing game and indie game lover should experience.
We don’t know if MINTROCKET expected their games to be this successful. But this success may have opened the door to Dave the Diver cross-play support in the coming days. More precisely, we can start getting excited about a co-op mode.

Dave the Diver Platforms
Dave the Diver is currently on Steam and only supported on Windows PC, MacOS, and things like the Steam Deck and the ROG Ally.
The good news is that Dave the Diver has received the official “Verified Status”, from Valve. This indicates that Valve extensively tested the game on their Steam Deck, meeting all compatibility requirements. The art style of Dave the Diver seems to be a great one to enjoy on a handheld device.
The developers have stated that they are considering expanding their platforms and will let the public know when a decision is made. But even if they decide to port Dave the Diver onto different platforms, it will only be cross-play if the developers develop a multiplayer expansion.
Dave the Diver cross-play and cross-platform support will be real if the developers decide to make different game ports. But that is entirely speculation by this point — all we can do is sit back, relax and catch some fish to make some sushi to sell to our customers tonight.
