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 Hat Graph All 94 Hats Ranked From Cute To Sus

Among Us Hat Graph All 94 Hats Ranked From Cute To Sus Among Us' hats can say a lot about the player that wears them and may influence who dies first. Here's every hat in the game ranked from cute to sus. One of the best ways to appear innocent in Among Us is by dressing for the occasion. While judging someone by their appearance is superficial, it could also be a player's saving grace. This graph will examine every hat in Among Us and rank them according to how cute, boring, silly, and sus they are. In a social deduction game like Among Us, players usually don't have a lot to go off outside of appearances. This becomes even more true for players who primarily play in public lobbies where voice chat isn't an option. A player could be given the benefit of the doubt immediately depending on how they choose to dress. While dressing cute could help an innocent crewmate stay out of the spotlight, it can also allow the Impostor to prey on the unassuming minds of their vic...

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...

Why Among Us 2021 Roadmap Hasnt Released Yet

Why Among Us 2021 Roadmap Hasnt Released Yet A 2021 map for Among Us updates is still missing in action, despite a promise early this year - which may be because predictions are impossible. In a January blog post, Among Us creators InnerSloth promised a content roadmap for 2021. The idea was to "be more transparent" about what features were launching for the social deduction game, and in which order. As of mid-May, however, that roadmap for Among Us still doesn't exist, and given both the time of year and the likely explanation, it may not arrive at all. Among Us first launched in June 2018 as a mobile-only title for iOS and Android, only reaching PCs in November that year. It was largely sidelined until early 2020, when Twitch and YouTube streamers helped shoot it to massive popularity. This resulted in a Nintendo Switch port in December, and plans for both Xbox and PlayStation versions by the end of 2021. In terms of original content, the biggest release so far has been...
