Developer Tripwire Interactive has decided to keep the bloody fun going by preparing a next-gen upgrade for the shark quest to be available at the launch of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. As announced on the Maneater immersive haptic on the PS5 controller. The new version will be sold as a physical release, but current-gen Maneater owners will also be offered a free upgrade. PC shark enthusiasts can expect a next-gen upgrade of their own in early 2021, which should give them some extra time to upgrade their hardware in order to the next-gen graphics.

Given Maneater's emphasis on Call of Duty, so it's surprising to see an off-kilter game from a smaller team get the same treatment.

Maneater was a breath of fresh air and a gulp of fresh water for a lot of video game fans when it released in May. There aren't really any other video games like it to this day, even though there are plenty of open-world RPGs. It's a very special title, and it deserves the recognition it's received. It's good to know that fans will be able to tread the waters of Maneater on next-gen consoles when they come out in November.
