If Zagreus’ main goal is to get out of the underworld, even if it means killing his father Hades along the way, nothing stands in the way of a little fishing break along the way. Indeed, quite quickly in your game, you can unblock fish by getting the rod from the Foreman, after a few conditions. Once in your possession, the rivers of the Underworld are all yours to fish and catch a large number of fish, which you can exchange at the Chef Cuistot for important resources which will greatly help you to complete all the objectives in the game!

Fishing is a somewhat complex occupation, where you will find it 3 fish rarities: common, rare or legendary. Once the fish has bitten and the hook has sunk, you have 0.68 seconds to press the button on your joystick/keypad again to catch the fish. After this time he will have fled. In addition, the rarity depends on how long it took to catch the fish:
- Between 0 and 0.34 seconds: You have a 50% chance that the caught fish is rare, 50% that it is legendary.
- Between 0.35 and 0.68 seconds: You have a 50% chance that the caught fish is common, 50% that it is rare.
