Fisch: The Atlantis Update — What It Included
The Atlantis Update brought one of the sunken world’s oldest legends to Fisch, the Roblox fishing game that has drawn more than 4.6 billion visits since launch. It went live during a short window on January 25, 2025, opening a drowned-city expansion themed on the myth of Atlantis — a place the developer’s listing describes as a city once “blessed” by the gods before it was swallowed by the sea. Interest was enormous for a single drop, with well over 800,000 players marking themselves as going.
Fisch remains one of Roblox’s busiest fishing games, routinely holding tens of thousands of concurrent anglers, and the Atlantis expansion was the kind of lore-driven content release that keeps that crowd coming back. Below is a recap of what the update introduced and where it sat in the game’s run of seasonal events.

What the Atlantis Update included
The update leaned on its subtitle, “The Lost City’s Secrets,” building an underwater expansion around the sunken ruins of Atlantis. In keeping with how Fisch handles its themed drops, the release framed the setting as a newly discovered region to explore rather than a simple cosmetic refresh — the developer’s telling of the story leaves open whether Atlantis is truly gone for good or simply hidden beneath the waves, and the content invited players to find out for themselves.
- A new Atlantis-themed area tied to the game’s ongoing exploration loop.
- Fresh catches and discoveries associated with the lost-city setting.
- A narrative hook — the fall of Atlantis — used to frame the expansion’s reveal.
The reveal was staged as a timed premiere rather than a multi-day event, so the calendar entry marked the two-hour launch window itself rather than an ongoing run.
When it ran
The scheduled event ran on January 25, 2025, from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM ET — a tight two-hour launch window. The card above lists that same window across the major world time zones, so the exact local start is shown there. This was a one-off reveal moment rather than a multi-day event, which is why the interest count climbed so sharply in the lead-up to a single date.
How it fit the game’s rhythm
Fisch keeps returning to themed expansions and limited events, though the gap between them has varied — Atlantis in January 2025 wasn’t followed by Scoria Reach until February 2026, over a year later. The cadence has picked up sharply this summer: the game has run Drylands in early July 2026, layered a long-running summer festival (Fischfest) across June to September 2026, and lined up a run of upcoming drops including Roaming Fish, Harpoon Guns, and The Deep through late July and into August 2026. Atlantis reads as an earlier entry in that same run of lore-driven expansions, from back when the game’s event schedule was far less frequent.
