Shark fans attend! Tripwire Interactive and Deep Silver have announced that the shark sim, Maneater, will be swimming onto Nintendo Switch beginning May 25th. The Switch version joins the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC versions.
During the game, players will begin their journey in the fins of a bull shark pup whose only goal is to survive to become a true man-eating menace. Players will swim through the single-player open world and encounter a variety of enemies including humans. Essentially the goal is to eat, explore, and evolve.
- Eat: Feed on humans, consume nutrients, and find rare shark loot to evolve past what nature intended.
- Explore the Gulf: Explore seven large regions, including bayous of the gulf coast, resort beaches, industrial docks, the open ocean and more. Experience a living world with a full day/night cycle.
- Evolve Into a Legend: Unlock and equip various Evolutions that improve and enhance your shark as you progress through the campaign.
- Unique Story: Play through a full narrative, story-based campaign narrated by Chris Parnell (Rick and Morty, Saturday Night Live, 30 Rock) and set against the backdrop of a reality TV show.
- Diverse, Compelling Combat: Battle fierce wildlife including other apex predators or fight against various types of human hunters ranging from town drunks all the way up to the Coast Guard.
- Includes the Tiger Shark Evolution: The Tiger Shark is often called the ‘garbage disposal of the sea.’ Appropriately enough, this evolution allows you to digest nearly anything, increasing your ability to gain vital nutrients from all varieties of prey.
