What is happening now
Call of the Wild: The Angler is a fishing simulator that launched in August 2022 across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms. Players can explore various fishing locations and engage in sport fishing gameplay within the adventure framework. Recently, the game made headlines when players discovered an unintended leak embedded in a public Steam beta build. The discovery revealed test assets for Contraband, a separate Avalanche Studios project, accessible through developer menus within the fishing game's shared engine. The incident highlighted how interconnected development tools can inadvertently expose unreleased content, though it remains unclear whether the leak was intentional or a simple oversight during the beta distribution process.
