'Among Us' (ALL) Roadmap Reveals Upcoming Content - Trailer

by Rainier on June 10, 2021 @ 10:38 p.m. PDT

Among Us is an online and local party game of teamwork and betrayal for 4-10 players...in space!

Play with 4-10 player online or via local WiFi as you attempt to prepare your spaceship for departure, but beware as one or more random players among the Crew are Impostors bent on killing everyone!

Among Us is about two different seemingly conflicting ideas – that you need to work together with your crew, but also that you can’t trust anyone but yourself.

Who knew sneaking around, accusing your friends of murder, and being wrong could be so fun?

Originally created as a party game, we recommend playing with friends at a LAN party or online using voice chat.

The next big update will be 15 player support with new colors (including Rose, Gray, Tan, and more), a slight graphics update, mobile controller support, and more. Details on this coming to you sooner than you think...!

In no particular order, here's what we want to work on after that:

  • A new map - Map 5! Very secret. What's it gonna be on? Don't ask me! I'm sworn to secrecy, I'm bad at secrets, and I would like to keep my job.
  • Achievements. For anyone who wants to prove they are  pros at the game. AKA not me, I'm a very anxious Impostor.
  • Account linking between platforms. All your save data and cosmetics, available on your platform of choice.
  • New roles and ways to play. VERY SECRET. OR MAYBE I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT'S UP. 
  • Hide n’ Seek mode. Come out come out wherever you areee.
  • Visor cosmetics. Even more ways to fix a ship in style! Yes it may block your vision but at least you'll be fashionable.
  • Consoles (Xbox and PlayStation). I get it, you want to know when. I can't tell you. I'M SORRY. When I can I will!!
  • Take a nap at some point, idk, the churn of capitalism is rough

Once we can give you more concrete dates we will, but there’s A LOT to be excited for in the coming months.

The Crew

  • Win by completing tasks to prepare the ship or ejecting all Impostors.
  • React quickly to undo the Impostor's sabotages.
  • Check the Admin map and Security cameras to keep tabs on other Crewmates.
  • Report any dead bodies immediately to start discussion of who the suspected Impostor is.
  • Call emergency meetings to discuss suspicious behavior.
  • Vote to eject suspected Impostors.

The Impostor

  • Kill crewmates and frame bystanders.
  • Pretend to run tasks to blend in with the crewmates.
  • Sneak through the vents to quickly move about the ship.
  • Use sabotages to cause chaos and divide the crew.
  • Close doors to trap victims and kill in private.

Key Features:

  • Customization: Pick your color and hat.
  • Lots of game options: Add more impostors, more tasks, and so much more!
  • Quickly find a game online from the host list.
  • In-game text chat.
  • Rich discord integration.
  • Cross-platform play between platforms

Currently available for Android, iOS, Nintendo Switch and PC, Among Us is coming to Xbox Series X|S or Xbox One with Xbox Game Pass in 2021.
