The answer before the background

Our recommendation

The current hungry shark world update is still active on mobile. Google Play and Apple's App Store both show Goal Rush/Shark Cup content in their latest release text, and Apple lists version 7.9.1 dated June 9, 2026. Google Play showed a June 2026 update in the US result reviewed, with some locales reflecting a later July date. Treat the next event or shark as unknown until Ubisoft publishes it in a first-party store or channel.

Separate permanent systems from limited rewards

A store can retain release notes after an event ends. Before writing that a pet, shirt, pass or mini-level is available, check the live event panel and current date. Preserve the historical update in the version ledger even when the reward is no longer claimable.

New map and new shark searches frequently combine wish lists, community concepts, leaks and real releases. A valid current claim needs a first-party publisher, product, date and shipped version. Datamined art or a creator thumbnail can be a research lead, not a release confirmation.

Mobile activity does not imply a console content patch

The live mobile app continues to advertise regular features, content and challenges. The paid 2018 console product has a separate package and storefront. Do not copy a mobile Shark Cup, Apex roster or Splash Pass into Xbox, PS4 or Switch instructions unless the platform page or installed version confirms it.

Version labels such as old version, latest version and 2026 should be answered with the exact store and review date. Avoid distributing archived packages. An old APK or IPA can lose security fixes, cloud compatibility and event access; the safe rollback path is the platform owner's supported option, not an unsigned download.

Common questions

Is the game still being updated?

Yes on mobile: current first-party stores show 2026 Goal Rush content and recent version history.

What is the latest iOS version checked?

Apple's US listing showed version 7.9.1 dated June 9, 2026 when reviewed August 4, 2026.

When is the next shark coming?

No date should be claimed without a current Ubisoft or first-party store announcement.

Do console editions get every mobile event?

Do not assume so. Console and live mobile are separate products with different content scope and update cadence.
