The Pale Reach adds one additional zone to Dredge, on a similar scale to each of the previous areas. It's decently designed and has one of the more interesting set-ups of Dredge's stories - but struggles with its identity.

This DLC is "mid-game" content, a location to explore as you progress through each other area. But also as a DLC it's something that many will play as an additional "endgame". With the suped-up engines of a completed Dredge playthough.. The Pale Reach's main threat couldn't keep up with my boats default speed, and I was finished with the DLC in about an hour.

Had The Pale Reach been designed for an endgame level of upgrades then all players new and old would have an extra area to enjoy. As it is, don't be prepared for too much if you've already completed Dredge.
