Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once

Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once An Instagram user is making "low-cost" Among Us cosplays using his own body parts to represent the crew members of the beloved multiplayer game. An Instagram user has found a bizarre way to cosplay multiple Among Us characters at the same time. The social deduction game has taken the internet by storm despite being largely ignored when it released in 2018. The game has reached such incredible amounts of popularity that the developer cancelled a sequel to focus up on developing the current game. Among Us, like the similarly explosive Fall Guys before it, owes much of its success to its adorable, minimally designed characters. The astronauts in Among Us are small, beanlike creatures, decked out like Skittles in bright primary colors. Like in Fall Guys, players can purchase cosmetic accessories for their astronaut, including hats, and even little pets that can follow them around. While players are mostly interested in Amo...

Among Us Developer Turns Chicken Nugget Into Impostor In Joke Video

Among Us Developer Turns Chicken Nugget Into Impostor In Joke Video

Watch a murderous chicken nugget come to life in Among Us to celebrate the real-life, crewmate-shaped snack selling for close to $100,000.

Among Us Developer Turns Chicken Nugget Into Impostor In Joke Video

InnerSloth, developers of the popular online multiplayer Among Us, is celebrating the end of an unusual, chicken nugget-centered story today by sharing what it would look like if the fried morsel could kill. First launched in 2018, Among Us features a deadly struggle between good, hard-working crewmates just trying to keep a spaceship running long enough to reach civilization and murderous imposters intent on killing everyone aboard. A typical game has all the players, whether crewmate or imposter, look identical. However, in this recent social media post, the developers have dropped the chicken nugget imposter’s unsettling form into the game unchanged.

The familiarly shaped piece of poultry started making headlines last week after it was spotted on eBay. It seems the snack was originally served as a part of a special McDonald's meal made in partnership with the famed Korean boy band BTS. Noticing one of the chicken nuggets included in the meal resembled a character from Among Us, one fan decided to put it up for sale. Even though it was listed as in "used" condition, bidding on the fowl bite quickly rose into the tens of thousands. The long bidding war came to an end with the curiously shaped Among Us chicken nugget selling for nearly $100,000.

The Among Us creators, who have been following the auction closely, have decided to pay a “cursed tribute” to the events of the week by whipping up a short video making the valuable chicken nugget an imposter. The nine-second clip is set in The Skeld, one of the game’s earliest and most well-known maps. The video follows a blood-thirsty monstrosity titled "the nugg." In the top left of the screen, the nugg’s list of tasks suggests its only objective is to become more valuable than the real-world nugget that inspired it. Unfortunately, that means certain death for the video’s red crewmate named $100,000. It is hard to tell if the ruthless murder or the face the nugg makes afterward is more unnerving.

THE NUGGET SAGA IS OVER 🐔🍗 the Among Us shaped chicken nugget (https://t.co/9I02dtWdmf) has sold for $99,997.00 + shipping???????????? here is a cursed tribute to a strange week, may the winner be blessed by the bean form forever pic.twitter.com/cJwFyj9XtB

Sending fans off into the weekend with an unsettling feeling is something of a trademark for the Among Us Twitter account. Today’s display featured ferocious fast food, but the team’s past creations have been arguably more bizarre. Back in April, an image appeared on Among Us’ social media depicting a four-legged crewmate. The developers initially seemed to be threatening to unleash it in the game, though soon after assured fan this would not happen.

There is big news on the horizon for Among Us as the summer season of game announcements begins and that makes it a great time for the developers to lean into the publicity being generated by this chicken nugget story. The team has promised the growing fanbase that the showcase on June 10 will shed light on the game's 15-player update, an update that will help the title better accommodate its new fans.

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are Among Us' dastardly Impostors terrorize crewmates with various forms of killing and sabotage, and fans have theories about their origins and motives. The Impostors that give Among Us its name and central gameplay hook are, by design, a mysterious bunch. On the surface, they're nearly identical to Among Us' colorful crewmates, but Impostors exhibit certain strange and terrifying properties. Due to the game's lack of overt story, it's unclear what exactly Among Us' Impostors are, but fans have a few compelling theories. Unlike normal crewmates, Impostors have the ability to slink through vents, which - unless crewmates are small enough to do this, too, but simply have no need to - suggests they have some kind of shapeshifting ability. This would also explain Impostors' ability to open up a large mouth at the waist of their spacesuits and stab victims with sharp tongues. It's possible Among Us' crewmates also ha...

Every Among Us Kill Animation Ranked By Level Of Violence

Every Among Us Kill Animation Ranked By Level Of Violence Among Us is pretty brutal for such a simple-looking game with cute, rounded characters. Here's each kill animation ranked from least to most violent. Despite the rather cute and simple look of Among Us, the online science fiction game has some pretty horrific kill animations that are often shown when an Impostor is left alone with an unsuspecting Crewmate. This list will go over each one, ranking them from least to most violent. Killing is a natural part of Among Us as the premise states a parasitic shapeshifter Impostor has taken the place of one of the Crewmates in an otherwise productive crew of MIRA scientists, explorers, and researchers. Crewmates try figure out who the Impostor is while trying to stay alive, but fans know that death is an inevitable part of the game. In fact, the absence of one makes it near impossible to find out who the real Impostors are. Currently, there are only four different kill animations, but...

Among Us Map Timeline Theory How The Impostor Attacks Started

Among Us Map Timeline Theory How The Impostor Attacks Started One interesting Among Us fan theory offers an explanation on the origins of the Impostors and provides a timeline for when and where they appear. The online social deduction multiplayer title Among Us is a relatively simple game, but it's recent success has already brought about some interesting and complex fan theories to give more backstory to the space-themed setting. One theory gives a plausible explanation for how the Impostors came to be, incorporating each of the maps for more evidence. There are currently three maps in Among Us: The Skeld, MIRA HQ, and the latest addition, Polus. The developers are in the process of adding a new map, so this theory will only pertain to the ones already available. The Skeld is the primary map that takes place on a cargo spaceship which travels to the other locations. MIRA HQ is a tall building set high in a planet's atmosphere and is the location the Crewmates travel back to a...
