How much people want it
The anticipation index is where Steam places NETfishing in its own popular-upcoming ordering, which is driven by wishlist counts, rescaled to 0 to 100. It is tied to this game's store id, so it cannot be measuring a different thing. It is one signal and it is entirely about demand.
Search volume is Google Keyword Planner, average monthly searches for US, read on 30 August 2026. It sits beside the index rather than inside it. A title that is also an ordinary English phrase picks up searches that have nothing to do with the game, so we flag those rather than quietly counting them.
Why there is no review score here
Every quality ranking on this site is computed from how a game was received: player sentiment adjusted for sample size, the critic aggregate, and how many people the game reached. None of those exist for a game nobody has played. The anticipation figure above is popularity, and popularity before release is a measure of marketing and expectation, not of the game.
When NETfishing releases it enters the catalogue and is scored on exactly the same formula as everything else, with no adjustment for having been on this page.
Where this sits
Common questions
When does NETfishing come out?
No firm date. Steam shows "August 2026", which is a window rather than a day. We read that on 30 August 2026.
Who is making NETfishing?
woofmeow. Taken from the store listing, not from an announcement.
How much will NETfishing cost?
Free on Steam in the United States, read on 30 August 2026. Pre-release prices are not final and regional pricing differs.
How anticipated is NETfishing?
Steam ranks it 75 of 478 in its popular-upcoming ordering, which is driven by wishlist counts. That gives it an anticipation index of 84 out of 100. This is a measure of how many people want it, not of whether it will be good, and there is no quality component in it at all.
Have you reviewed NETfishing?
No. It has not been released, so nobody has played it, including us. There is no score on this page for that reason. When it comes out it enters the catalogue and is scored on the same formula as everything else.
