Dave the Diver’s first content update will be on Switch at launch

Dave the Diver just received its first content update on PC, and we have confirmation that when the game hits Switch later this month, everything that’s new will be available at launch.

This is the first big update for Dave the Diver since it’s version 1.0 debut. The game is adding a fresh questline, new event boss, novel species, and more.

Here’s some additional information:

The cute, colorful, and critically acclaimed Dave the Diver is surprisingly deep, with tons of secrets and gameplay to uncover as players explore. Players who download today’s update can follow novel missions in the Blue Hole’s Glacial Area, discover additional nighttime fish species, catch crustaceans with new crab and lobster traps (and enjoy a Lobster Party event), unlock a powerful new event boss after collecting all Marinca, and meet a novel VIP customer: The Wandering Merchant, who provides new secret recipes and crops. Speaking of crops, the update adds some farming automations and tools: players can now ask Sammy to help with tasks on the farm; they can set up a chicken feed dispenser and can use a new egg storage box to keep eggs from spoiling. The update also includes improvements to game load times and performance, as well as quality of life additions. Starting today, Steam players can collect new items from the Steam Points Shop, including trading cards, profiles, emojis, and badges.

A video going over the new update can be found below.
