About Real VR Fishing
Real VR Fishing offers a tranquil virtual angling experience across meticulously recreated real‑world locations. The base game provides 40 maps and over 150 fish species, while DLC expands the world to more than 100 spots and 300 species. Players can fish at their own pace in Normal mode or test skill in Expert mode, either alone or with up to three friends sharing the same spot in real‑time chat. The game also includes progression, avatar costumes, and a personal aquarium for displaying catches.
01 / THE GUIDE
Gameplay Modes
Normal Mode delivers a relaxed pace, letting newcomers enjoy casting, waiting, and reeling without pressure. Expert Mode adds tighter timing and more demanding fish behavior for seasoned anglers. Both modes share the same core actions—casting, waiting for a bite, and feeling resistance while reeling—providing a consistent feel across difficulty levels.
- Try Normal Mode first to learn the line‑tension cues before moving to Expert.
- Observe how fish react differently in each mode to adjust your timing.

Multiplayer Co‑op
Up to four players can occupy the same fishing spot, sharing the virtual environment and chatting in real time. This cooperative setting lets friends watch each other's catches and enjoy the calm atmosphere together. The multiplayer experience does not alter the core fishing mechanics; each participant still casts, waits, and reels independently while seeing others on screen.
- Coordinate casting times to avoid overlapping lines.
- Use the chat to share tips on bite timing with teammates.

Progression & Customization
Leveling up and releasing rare fish are part of progression, and you can customize your avatar with costume packs and decorate your aquarium. The personal aquarium lets you arrange rocks, greenery, and trophies earned from events, creating a visual showcase of your achievements. Customization focuses on visual flair; changing costumes and aquarium items does not affect the underlying fishing mechanics.
- Display trophies prominently to remind yourself of past challenges.
- Mix different aquarium décor for a more vibrant display.

Picnic Festa DLC
The Picnic Festa expansion adds seven new picnic‑themed locations across the US, Spain, and Japan. Players rescue Chubby Fish and Starving Sharks, helping restore balance to an evolving ecosystem. These new spots increase the variety of scenery and introduce additional species beyond the base game’s offerings.
- Explore each new location to discover unique fish behaviors.
- Pay attention to the rescue objectives for added challenge.
