This is going to be the best game ever, yes?

In celebration of Discovery’s “Shark Week,” Tripwire Interactive has announced that pre-orders for their open world shark attack video game Maneater are now available on the Epic Games Store, and if you pre-order before Monday August 5th, 2019 you’ll receive $5 off!

Additionally, the first in a series of behind-the-scenes Developer Diaries has been released today, detailing the origins of Maneater’s vicious premise and providing a close look at how the developers at Tripwire Interactive (best known for Killing Floor 2) are working to bring the game’s predator protagonist to life. You can check that out down below.

Set in the unforgiving waters of the southern US Gulf Coast, Maneater finds players fighting to survive in rivers and streams as well as the open ocean, with danger lurking at every depth.

Your only tools are your wits, jaws, and an uncanny ability to evolve as you 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 to 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, you’ll be able to customize your maneater to fit YOUR play style.
