| “ | Sharkjira found the hottest fragment of a dormant volcano... and ate it. Take a glance at the strongest beast the world has ever seen: Magmajira! | ” |
— In-game description
|
Magmajira is an evolved shark in Hungry Shark Evolution, added with version 8.4.0. He is the evolved version of the standard Sharkjira. You can change the evolution from evolution to standard and from standard to evolution whenever you want. When first released, this was not the case; you could only change the look and the abilities were the same. It was a cosmetic change.
Cost[]
You can buy Sharkjira with 500,000 coins or 900 gems and then evolve him with 300 gems. Formerly 1,000 gems
Abilities[]
As previously indicated, Magmajira is an enhanced version of Sharkjira, boasting superior statistics and unique capabilities. His most notable feature is the evolved Atomic Breath.
Atomic Breath[]
| “ | Due to its nuclear mutation, this monster shoots a laser that annihilates its enemies. | ” |
Magmajira is able to unleash an extremely powerful, concentrated breath of fire, igniting and destroying anything in front of it. This ability can also break rocks, detonate mines and destroy toxic barrels, as with all other beam-like attacks such as Hellbeam.
Aura Of Fire[]
| “ | The high temperature of its body is capable of burning all enemies that are nearby. | ” |
During Gold Rush, Magmajira's body temperature increases to the temperature of lava, causing an area of burning effect around Magmajira. This burning aura will instantly destroy anything within radius, and detonate mines. This is by far the most OP gold rush ability.
Walk[]
| “ | This monster can walk on the surface, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. | ” |
Magmajira can walk on land, trampling any bystanders and buildings. Also, he leaves fire in his footsteps, burning anything that steps on the fire.
Appearance[]
Magmajira is a bulky shark-like creature with rows of protruding crystal spikes. These spikes decrease in size as they travel down the length of his tail. The creature's scales appear to be a light brownish-gray color, whereas his underbelly is a little white in color. Magmajira has two highly distinct fingers that resemble claws, along with three toes on each foot. When walking on land, Magmajira resembles the Burning Godzilla, due to his imposing size and fiery appearance.
Skins[]
Skins are items, that when equipped change your shark's appearance.

Trivia[]
- Magmajira is most likely a homage to Godzilla's Burning Form, specifically the "Heisei Burning Godzilla (1995)" and the "Legendary Burning Godzilla (2019)" from the films "Godzilla vs Destroyah" (1995) and "Godzilla: King of The Monsters" (2019) respectively.
- Despite being released three years earlier, Magmajira also serves as a reference to Godzilla's evolved form in Godzilla x Kong: the New Empire (2024)
- Magmajira is the first thing to cost 1000 gems, as previous sharks had a maximum price of 900 gems.
- Upon release, a glitch prevented Jira-Chan from being equipped, but as of the April 13, 2021 update, Jira-Chan is now available.
- Due to Magmajira's unique spikes, accessories such as the Crab Fork and Shark Vortex do not scale proportionately and may look oversized.
- Upon his initial release, Magmajira had a bugged hitbox that allowed him to pass through walls, which could be exploited to leave the playable map area. This issue was addressed in v8.7.0.
- Upon release there was a bug that made all previous none evolved form of Sharkjira, Hammerhead and Mr. Snappy be double in size and share the same abilities and stats as their evolved counterpart after purchasing the evolution, this was shared among the first three evolved sharks (Magmajira, Lord Snappy and DarkHammer) but was removed in the next update.
- Some players have achieved negative scores while using Magmajira, with the score becoming negative after reaching 2,170,000,000 points. However, the exact score at which the score turns negative and begins counting backward may vary by device; some devices require 2,140,000,000 points to achieve a negative score. Once the score falls below -1, it will become positive again. (This no longer exists and is fixed)
