The fishing experience in Fishing Resort is less dominant than the exploration and discovery aspects, which are almost reminiscent of monster-collection games like Pokémon.

That’s one badass fisherman.

Xseed is bringing Fishing Resort overseas on November 22. This title, developed by Yuji Naka’s studio Prope, brings players to a relaxing island where you can spend your days fishing.

The game will come in two packages: the standalone version and a package with a fishing controller shell.

“Because I’m not a big fisherman, I said no at first. Thinking about it further, maybe there are other people like me that don’t know much about fishing who may enjoy an accessible fishing game.”

Any questions for the creator of Sonic the Hedgehog, Ivy the Kiwi? and Fishing Resort?

Kirby: Mass Attack, Half-Minute Hero Second and All Kamen Rider: Rider Generation launch a collective attack.

Prope’s fishing resort exploration game for Wii is being published in North America by Xseed.
