Dave the Diver gets In the Jungle DLC release date, game getting Nintendo Switch 2 physical release

Today, Mintrocket shared the release date for Dave the Diver’s In the Jungle DLC and revealed a physical release for Nintendo Switch 2.

The DLC, which provides roughly ten hours of content, is slated for June 18, 2026 worldwide. Dave will be venturing into new territory with new encounters and mechanics.

Here’s the latest information about the upcoming content:

Welcome to Utara, a jungle village where time flows in real-time. Here, Dave can spend his days freely diving underwater, gathering fruits and resources — and, naturally, building relationships with the locals by completing tasks and side quests. As ever, Dave finds himself surrounded by potential friends (and future customers) whose trust and patronage must be earned. As relationships deepen, so too do the rewards, unlocking new opportunities throughout Utara and creating ripple effects that extend all the way to Bancho’s restaurant business.

One of “In the Jungle’s” biggest departures from the base game is the introduction of Bancho Grill, a brand-new restaurant in Utara featuring a fully cooked freshwater menu.

Unlike Bancho Sushi, where movement was limited, Dave can now move freely throughout the Grill, serving customers across multiple areas rather than a single horizontal plane. As Dave’s bonds with villagers grow, they’ll begin visiting Bancho Grill as diners, making the restaurant a key hub, and a vital link, between Dave and the village community.

This time around, Dave dives into a massive freshwater lake instead of the Blue Hole — one packed with new aquatic life, unexpected cuisine options, and plenty of lurking danger. New waters demand new tools, and Mintrocket revealed Dave’s latest piece of gear: the Jungle Gun. This versatile weapon can freely transform into net guns, shotguns, snipers, or regular guns, allowing Dave to adapt on the fly and giving players the freedom to experiment with their preferred combat styles.

A trailer announcing the Dave the Diver In the Jungle DLC release can is included below.
