A major new Dave the Diver update has arrived, and this one's themed around some pretty big indie collaborations, but it's got plenty to offer in addition to those crossovers as well.

These crossovers won't be Dave the Diver's first; the game has also notably crossed over with the likes of kaiju franchise Godzilla, as well as Goddess of Victory: Nikke, the free-to-play mobile RPG from Stellar Blade creator Shift Up.

First up, Californian singer-songwriter and YouTuber mxmtoon has been added to Dave the Diver, and she'll be playing a "special concert" for Dave and his buddies. You'll also get the chance to dive alongside her and serve up a special dish for her.

Hugely successful indie poker roguelike Balatro is up next in today's Dave the Diver crossover stakes. We first heard about this crossover back in August 2024, although we don't know if Balatro will also be getting Dave-themed content.

It turns out the Sea People are just as prone to Balatro addiction as everyone else, so you can now take on the Sea People in a game of Balatro and "earn a special Charm as a reward".

The third major game crossing over with Dave the Diver in today's update is Potion Craft. You'll be able to meet the Fellow Alchemist and help him find his Magic Cauldron, and you can also buy new ingredients and recipes from the Mushroomer.

Even if you're not interested in any of these indie crossovers, there's plenty more to enjoy in this Dave the Diver update, including a new minigame, a new tracking feature for recipes and weapons, and more. You can take a look at the full changelog here.

Dave the Diver is available right now for PC, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch, as is its newest "Dave and Friends" collaboration update. Stay tuned for more.
