The Aquarium is heading to PC and consoles, offering a relaxing game that combines an aquarist simulator with adventure and exploration of the underwater world. The player can catch rare fish specimens with their own hands and collect beautiful corals. Since May 13, everyone can check out the free demo of The Aquarium on PC. The game will be released in 2026 in Early Access on PC. Later on, The Aquarium will also be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
The game is being developed by Eiwar Games, an independent studio from Turkey. The publisher of The Aquarium is Ultimate Games S.A.
Catch, breed, and admire the underwater world!
The Aquarium is a relaxing aquarium simulator with open-world exploration elements and the ability to collect rare fish specimens. The game allows players to explore rivers, lakes, and oceans, first by boat or water scooter, and then by diving underwater in search of aquatic wonders. In The Aquarium, you can catch fish with your own hands, which requires the right approach so as not to scare the creatures away. The caught specimens are then registered in a special FishDex catalog. It is also possible to collect corals and other underwater treasures.
Running and developing your aquariums is also an important part of the game. At home, you can arrange and decorate the space however you like. The player is, of course, also responsible for feeding and breeding the fish.
The game by Eiwar Games stands out for its elements related to the life of an aquarist. In the nearby village, you can trade and interact with residents and tourists. It is also worth taking care of your rest, especially since a shower and strong coffee can improve your character attributes for the next dive.
The Aquarium gets a free demo
A free demo of The Aquarium has been available on the Steam platform since May 13. Here, the player can test the main gameplay mechanics, including discovering fishing spots from a boat and catching fish by hand. The Aquarium Demo also lets you create your own aquariums with selected decorations and plants.
As Eiwar Games announces, players will find much more content in the full version, including completely new ecosystems and advanced mechanics, such as the ability to create new species. After the Early Access release on Steam, the title will be further developed, taking into account the community's feedback and ideas.
