Is Roblox Fisch’s Second Sea Getting Axed? The Epic Drama Explained
After months of building hype, Roblox Fisch released its most ambitious update yet: the Second Sea. Only two weeks after release, the devs are seriously considering removing it entirely. What went wrong with this popular quirky fishing game? We've been doing guides on Roblox Fisch since the game launched, especially during the Second Sea update, and here's what we know. The Fisch Life Cycle Screenshot by Destructoid Since its launch on October 5th, 2024, Fisch has enjoyed overwhelming success. Its casual and relaxing gameplay captivated players from all over the world. With over one million game likes and just under three billion visits, Fisch achieved popularity that most other Roblox games can only dream of. One thing that kept veteran players coming back (and new players coming in) was the updates. Each week, Fisch would release a mini-update, and every month or so there would be a bigger one. These updates would add new fish, new rods, and new areas to the game. One thing that many players liked about these updates was that it was accessible to anyone (even brand new players). Veterans got something new to do, while new players got a faster way of catching up with the veterans. This cycle kept going for months, and problems started arising. Even though the game was still beginner-friendly, some late-game content required weeks of grinding, and some players felt that this needed to change. And change definitely came on March 29th. New Sea - New Problems Releasing an entirely new area is nothing new for a Roblox game. Games like Blox Frutis have found great success with their Second and Third Seas, so adding a Second Sea to Fisch seemed like a solid plan. However, it's not common for a massive update to almost completely disregard its older content. Unfortunately, this is exactly how many players felt with Fisch's Second Sea update. Screenshot by Destructoid Firstly, to even access the Second Sea, players needed to be level 200, a feat many did not achieve. Even though the level cap was at 1,000, many did not consider going higher than 100 because, as we've said, most content was available to all players, regardless of playtime. Secondly, those who were able to get to the Second Sea found that all of their progress from the First Sea was almost completely irrelevant. The Second Sea used an entirely new in-game currency, meaning everyone started the update with nothing. Even worse, the powerful fishing rods from the First Sea received a debuffs, making them much less effective in the Second Sea. Last, but arguably, the biggest problem players seem to have is that the Second Sea, was that it felt more like starting a New Game (of Fisch) rather than an update. The new rods in the Second Sea felt more like reskins of the existing rods, the new areas weren't that interesting, the level cap increase (from 1,000 up to 2,500) felt like an overreach, but most importantly, the game just wasn't fun according to many. Some felt like the developers wanted a fresh start, rather than improve the game. The players have spoken: they don't like the Second Sea Pretty soon after the update went live, players started complaining, especially on the official Discord. However, even if the complaints fell on deaf ears, what was immediately clear was that many were quitting the game. Either because all their hard work didn't pay off, because they didn't want to grind (again), or because they weren't having fun, players started abandoning the game by the thousands after the Second Sea launched. Screenshot by Destructoid Finally, on April 7th, 2025, the developers released a pool where almost 50,000 players got a chance to vote. The results speak for themselves. Screenshot by Destructoid Even after such clear results, the devs tried again with a different pool in hope to somehow saving all their hard work. Again, the results speak for themself. Screenshot by Destructoid While the devs haven't yet confirmed their plans, the final announcement regarding the subject seems to suggest that some things are about to change. The Future of Fisch Image via Fisch official Discord At this point, it's too early to say, but one thing is for sure: change is coming to the beloved, yet quirky, Roblox fishing game. Despite the drop in players, Fisch is still an insanely popular game, and the developers genuinely seem like they care about their players' opinion. Whatever the case, we'll continue to follow and cover Fisch. That's all there is to it. To stay up to date with Fisch, check out our latest guides.
