Joy to the world on December 14 Among Us has finally been released for the Xbox One X/S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox One. The best part is if you have Xbox Game Pass you can download Among Us for free. Sad new for VR enthusiasts as during the Game Awards it was announced by InnerSloth that is was coming out but no timetable has been determined.
With the VR version coming out, you can be sure the world of wherever these aliens come from is sure to grow with the more time it is going to be around. Meta Quest, PlayStation VR, and SteamVR users are the first ones to get their hands on this one of an kind game. Since there is no word on the exact date of the launch there is an version on Garry’s Mod but it is extremely glitchy with no real way to block toxic players.
Among Us is an social deduction party game that swept through the nation during the pandemic and has shown the sticking around power. Supporting crossplay will have you playing with your friends or random people no matter what system you choose to use. Work together or solo trying to find the imposter or are you the imposter trying to frame your friends for the murders that stains your hands.
As an crewmate you will try to avoid being murdered and complete tasks all around the ship. Beware the imposter who will sabotage your efforts and have you running around the ship disregarding all your duties. If you find an dead body make sure to report it as it will increase your odds of finding the imposter.
If you are good at lying and deceiving well let’s hope you get picked to be on the imposter’s team where your task is to eliminate your fellow “crewmates”. Armed with an list of fake tasks run around “completing” them and watch your friends try to figure out how the game is not ending yet. When everyone is in the same area do not use the vents as imposters are the only ones who can and it will instantly make it known that the imposter is you, enjoy outer space.
With multiple skins you can make you little alien dude look like anything your mind is set upon. Customizing Among Us with more options making the game truly different every playthrough. Will you finish tasks on time or will you make your friends never trust anything you say again?
