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 Next Update Is Going To Make It Easier To Play

Among Us Next Update Is Going To Make It Easier To Play

Thanks to a brief Twitter exchange between Among Us' developers and the AbleGamers charity, an upcoming accessibility feature has been announced.

Among Us Next Update Is Going To Make It Easier To Play

An upcoming Among Us patch will make the game much more accessible to a variety of gamers. The social deduction game, developed by Inner Sloth and released back in 2018, experienced a huge surge in popularity in 2020. With its massive popularity and pop culture presence, Among Us' intense cooperative gameplay has attracted gamers of all shapes and sizes.

Accessibility has been a popular topic for gamers in recent years, as simple options or tweaks can allow disabled gamers to experience popular games like Among Us. Nonprofit organization AbleGamers is one group dedicated to spreading awareness about game accessibility by creating resources, running scholarships, and working with game developers. AbleGamers recently held a charity event, #SpawnTogether, which raised $1 million according to COO Steven Spohn. The impressive sum will go towards the foundation's further efforts to promote inclusivity within the industry.

After a recent Twitter conversation with AbleGamers' Steven Spohn, Among Us developer Inner Sloth confirmed that an upcoming patch will add new movement options to accommodate certain disabled players. The conversation began with Spohn inquiring about the possibility of allowing gamers to use keyboard and mouse inputs at the same time. The control scheme, which is not currently in the game, would allow players to move their character by clicking with the mouse while also inputting keyboard commands. Inner Sloth quickly confirmed that this option will be added to Among Us in the game's next patch.

YESSS Among Us will let us have keyboard controls WHILE click-to-move is active! Thank you @InnerslothDevs#AccessibilityWins #SoEveryoneCanGame https://t.co/myTxUK68Zw

Since its foundation in 2004, AbleGamers has fought for accessibility in the gaming world. Earlier this year, multiplayer survival horror title Dead By Daylight implemented a colorblind option after fans had requested the accessibility feature for years. However, a member of Behaviour Interactive, the developer of Dead By Daylight, had initially expressed annoyance on a livestream due to how often the feature was requested. Spohn spoke out against the insensitive comments, and shortly afterward Behaviour Interactive announced that a colorblind option would finally be added. AbleGamer's prominence and visibility in the industry have slowly risen, starting with the organization's single founder and growing to work with huge AAA developers to raise money and awareness.

Among Us has become one of the most popular and recognizable games in the world, and it's only fair that gamers are able to experience the title regardless of any disabilities. Steven Spohn's requested feature serves as a small but very meaningful change to the game which will make it accessible to a wider range of players. Allowing more players to partake in the intense outer space detective game serves as a win for both AbleGamers, Among Us, and the gaming community as a whole.

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...
