Matsukata Hiroki no World Fishing is a fishing game featuring the endorsement and likeness of Japanese actor Hiroki Matsukata. The game uses digitized photos of Matsukata to represent the player, and includes many live-action video clips of him as various events play out in-game. It includes two types of fishing: billfish trawling (ocean fishing) and black bass fishing (lake fishing), which despite the title are both set in Australia. Each type of fishing includes introduction and basics videos for beginners, a free fishing practice mode, and a tournament mode.
