Real VR Fishing’s developer says its Halloween event and free Clear Creek map are live in the October 13 Steam update. Its release notice also brings forward two sharks that had been scheduled for October 20.
What the Steam announcement confirms
The dated Steam notice confirms those additions rather than merely repeating a planned release date. This is developer-reported availability, not an installation test by Choosense.
What remains unverified on Quest
Earlier official announcement titles on Meta and Facebook named October 13, Halloween, ice fishing and hand tracking. Those titles were checked on October 11, before release; their complete post text was not accessible in that check.
The Steam release notice does not establish Quest rollout status or hand tracking, ice fishing and mixed-reality support across headsets and storefronts. A feature named in one announcement should not be read as a promise of controller-free play on every device.
