BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Dovetail Games, developer and publisher of authentic sports simulation titles, revealed the 10 playable Elite Series pro anglers coming to Bassmaster Fishing 2022, the Official Video Game of B.A.S.S., when the game launches this fall.

With authenticity at the core of Bassmaster Fishing 2022, the development team has spent considerable effort in bringing real-life anglers to the virtual world, accurately recreating them with in-game models capturing everything including their hair, facial features and body shape. And just like in real life, each of the playable anglers will have access to a selection of equipment from real-world sponsors for maximum immersion. In addition to the roster of professional anglers, players can create their own custom angler to challenge the pros in the hopes of becoming the next Bassmaster Classic champion!

The full lineup of Bassmaster anglers includes Hank Cherry, the back-to-back Academy Sports + Outdoors Bassmaster Classic presented by Huk champion; 2021 Bassmaster Elite Series winners Taku Ito and Jeff Gustafson; and previous Elite Series champions Stetson Blaylock, John Crews, Buddy Gross and Carl Jocumsen. 2019 Bassmaster Angler of the Year Scott Canterbury and popular pros Scott Martin and Skylar Hamilton are also playable in the game.

Developed and published by Dovetail Games, Bassmaster Fishing 2022 is due to release this fall in North America and Europe on the PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, the Xbox One family of devices, including the Xbox One X, and Windows PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store.
