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 New Map Glimpsed In Games FirstEver Tweet

Among Us New Map Glimpsed In Games FirstEver Tweet

Among Us christens its official Twitter feed with a sneak peak at a brand new map, with the promise of more updates to come next month.

Among Us New Map Glimpsed In Games FirstEver Tweet

InnerSloth's surprise smash hit Among Us is making good on its promise to bring in more content, with a sneak peak at an upcoming new map released today on Twitter. It'll be the first new map since Polus was dropped in November of last year, and can be taken as a real indicator that InnerSloth's decision to build up its game is finally starting to take shape.

While not especially popular when it released in June 2018, Among Us caught wider attention in July 2020, thanks to content creators overseas and Twitch streamers, who inspired other online gamers to pick up the title. Since July, Among Us steadily increased in popularity, which inspired the team at InnerSloth to begin development of a sequel, while working simultaneously to support the original game. But the renewed and greater interest in Among Us, however, meant that InnerSloth had to cope with the technical problems that a sudden rise in usage can bring, and the developer made the decision to cancel the sequel in favor of supporting the original.

InnerSloth's tiny three-person team began work on improving Among Us, first by moving it from a free Amazon server to several more robust ones in order to cope with the massive surge in players. The developer also got to work rebuilding its outdated codebase, and implementing new game elements planned for the sequel into the original. Popularity also brought an onslaught of other problems besides server overload, including a surge in hackers and cheaters, which kept the small team relatively tied up. But today, InnerSloth finally christened its previously silent Among Us Twitter channel by tweeting the first new map to be released in the game in a little over a year, a sign that new content is very much still in the works.

🚀 Welcome to the official Among Us Twitter 🚀 Get all the news, peeks, and fun shenanigans here and become a part of the crew. Here's a special look at the NEW Among Us map! (For your eyes only!!) (Don't show the impostors!!) pic.twitter.com/FrCkK7ZcnI

The sneak peak shows a single room on the map, but the size of the room lends credence to it being larger than the Polus map. It gives little indication of how it is meant to be themed around the popular Henry Stikmin games it was announced to be based on, but hopefully more information will be released about it soon. After all, another tweet promises more content to come on December 10 during The Game Awards, for those who are "hungry for more." Considering that the Among Us Twitter channel has been silent since it was started in October, the two tweets seemed to appeared out of nowhere, almost as if they vented.

InnerSloth still has bugs to iron out and hackers to eject, so it's nice to see the developer dropping some new content, considering how busy it's undoubtedly been. There's no word yet on when the new map will be released, but that might change on December 10, as long as InnerSloth continues to actually use its Twitter handle.

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...
