Maneater is bringing the biting action to Switch this May

Get ready to jump as the shark on the go, as Maneater, which released last year on PC, and both PlayStation and Xbox consoles, will soon bloody the waters on Switch.

Maneater is a single player, open-world action-RPG, or as the developers at Tripware Interactive call it a ShaRkPG, in which you are the shark. But you are not Jaws at the beginning, in fact you are barely a pup and you need to use your skills and strength to bite your way to the top of the food change.

Here are some of the features the game is set to offer:

  • 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.

The game will release on Switch on May 25, so still plenty of time to enjoy the waters, before things get messy.
