'Maneater' Celebrates 5 Million Players, Update Adds Ray Tracing Support On PS5 And Xbox Series X|S - Trailer

by Rainier on Nov. 17, 2021 @ 9:06 a.m. PST

Maneater is an open-world, single-player action-RPG where players take on the role of a shark.

Experience the ultimate power fantasy as the apex predator of the seas -- a giant shark!

In this single-player action-RPG, players must fight to survive as a baby bull shark. Grow in power as you explore a wide range of underwater environments, from swamps and rivers to beach side resorts and the deep blue sea.

Set in the unforgiving waters of the southern US Gulf Coast, players will fight to survive in rivers and streams as well as the open ocean, with danger lurking at every depth. Their only tools are their wits, their jaws, and an uncanny ability to evolve as they feed. Anything and everything is on the menu... kill or be killed.

In this tale of revenge, players can take on the role of an ever-evolving shark and terrorize the coastal waterways, tearing swimmers and divers limb from limb, giving the humans a reason t- fear what lies below. Immersed in a living, breathing world full of threats and rewards, players will have a vast world to explore sunken wrecks, lurk in swamps, or cruise the open ocean looking for their next unsuspecting meal. As your shark evolves customize your maneater to fit YOUR play style. Eat, Grow, Evolve.


Developer/publisher Tripwire Interactive is proud to announce that over 5 million players have dared to enter the deep waters of Maneater.

Since its initial launch in May of 2020 and the subsequent release of the Maneater: Truth Quest downloadable content (DLC) in August of 2021, millions of players from around the globe and across all platforms have eaten, explored and evolved as the apex predator of the sea. To celebrate this fin-tastic milestone, Tripwire Interactive is launching a free Ray Tracing update today.

Built from the ground up for Xbox Series X and PS5 systems, today's Maneater update brings the Gulf Coast to life by enhancing the realism and appearance of real-time reflections on the surface of water as well as the refractions above when looking up from below.

In addition to adding Ray Tracing support for Xbox Series X and PS5, today’s Maneater update also delivers a wide array of quality-of-life and optimization improvements designed to improve stability and performance across all platforms.
