Maneater, the wildly unconventional open world action RPG that puts players in control of a ruthless shark, has officially arrived on mobile platforms. Previously released on PC and consoles, the game now makes its way to iOS and Android, bringing its signature mix of exploration, evolution, and brutal underwater combat to smartphones.

Unlike traditional RPGs where players take on the role of heroes or warriors, Maneater flips the formula completely. Players become a massive, bloodthirsty shark fighting to survive in a hostile ecosystem. Armed with nothing but razor sharp teeth, players hunt humans and sea creatures alike, creating a chaotic and violent underwater spectacle filled with intense action and visceral visuals.

The story centers around Scaly Pete, a reckless hunter who stars in a reality style show called Shark Hunters vs Maneaters. After losing his father to a giant shark, he becomes obsessed with revenge. Players step into the role of that very shark, creating a tense and personal rivalry between predator and hunter that unfolds throughout the game.

As the game progresses, players can evolve their shark, unlocking new abilities and upgrades. While early stages may feel challenging, continued play allows the shark to grow stronger, eventually taking on armed human forces and dangerous marine predators that stand in its way. This progression system gives Maneater its RPG depth and keeps the gameplay engaging over time.

The mobile version has been fully optimized for touch screen controls, ensuring smooth movement and combat on smaller displays. On iOS, the game supports Universal Purchase, allowing players to enjoy the same purchase across compatible devices, including iPads powered by M1 chips or later.

Maneater is released as a premium title with no advertisements and no microtransactions. The game is priced at approximately $5.50 USD, offering the complete experience in a single purchase.

Maneater on mobile proves that bold ideas still thrive in gaming. Turning players into the monster works, and this mobile version successfully preserves the chaos, depth, and dark humor that made the original stand out.
