Mintrocket Releases Dave the Diver: In the Jungle DLC

Priced at $9.99, the expansion adds a full jungle region, new gameplay systems, dozens of freshwater species, with Mintrocket already issuing post-launch fixes.

Overview

  • The paid DLC went live on June 18 via update 1.32/1.032, delivering the Utara Lake and Utara Village jungle region on PC and consoles and bundling multiple base-game bug fixes.
  • In the Jungle introduces top-down exploration, turn-based combat, relationship mechanics, a new Bancho Grill restaurant loop, and new minigames that change the game’s day-to-day flow.
  • The pack adds dozens of freshwater fish and boss encounters including the Piraiba Catfish, a quest to obtain a fishing rod, and the Jungle Gun that switches between multiple firearm modes.
  • Reviewers called the expansion substantial and sequel-like, estimating roughly 10–30 hours of content for players who finished the main campaign and praising its design and variety.
  • Players reported launch bugs and a chase-sequence issue that Mintrocket patched quickly, and the developer says it will release further follow-up fixes if needed while providing starting saves and a New Game DLC option.
