The first batch of DLC for self-proclaimed ShARkPG and marauding apex predator sim, Maneater, arrives on August 31st, developer Tripwire Interactive announced today. Picking up where Maneater‘s story concluded, the Maneater: Truth Quest DLC launches simultaneously for players on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via either the Epic Games Store or Steam.
With fresh waters to explore around a brand-new island, Maneater: Truth Quest packs in a bundle of new content. Included are new challengers, wildlife, enemies, objectives, and evolutions, all wrapped in a good dose of intrigue provided by a conspiracy theory with the titular Maneater at its center.
Watch the new Maneater: Truth Quest “Site P” trailer below to get a sense of what’s in store.
Maneater: Truth Quest DLC Details
Here’s a breakdown of the new features in Maneater: Truth Quest as volunteered by Tripwire Interactive.
New Evolutions
- New Evolution Set
- Maximum level cap increased to 40
- Five new organ evolutions with one additional organ slot unlocked at level 35 (requires DLC ownership)
New Wildlife

New Military Forces for Bounty Hunter System

New Objective Types

Naturally, a full copy of Maneater is required to play Maneater: Truth Quest. A free 15-minute gameplay ‘pilot episode’ is planned for release to give players a taste of the DLC. No official word on a release date for the episode, but before Maneater: Truth Quest‘s August 31st release seems a sensible assumption.
