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...

How Among Us Is Different On Switch

How Among Us Is Different On Switch

Among Us has finally come to the Nintendo Switch, and here are all the differences players can expect when they boot it up for the first time.

How Among Us Is Different On Switch

After a lot of rumors, Among Us is finally on the Nintendo Switch. The social deduction game has been a hit this year, although it was previously only available on PC and mobile devices. Now, fans with a Switch can experience the game for themselves, although Among Us on Switch has some expected differences.

One of the more shocking reveals during Nintendo's Indie World showcase today was that Among Us was not only coming to Switch - but it was dropping immediately after the stream. To add to the excitement is that the often discussed "Nintendo tax" doesn't seem to be present, since Among Us still only costs $5 on the eShop, the same price Among Us costs on Steam. Because Among Us was originally for PC and mobile devices, though, some differences are noticeable when playing it on the Nintendo Switch.

The first noticeable difference (besides the 720p screen) is the controller layout. Since the Nintendo Switch version of Among Us uses controllers and the touchscreen, it can take some getting used to - especially for those who've been familiar with playing the game solely on a touchscreen or with a mouse and keyboard already. The weird mixture of using the Switch's touchscreen and Joy-Con controllers certainly takes some getting used to, bust a skilled Among Us player will likely pick it up pretty quickly.

This also leads to another big Switch Among Us difference: having discussions in-game. It's much harder to type using the Switch's touchscreen or moving the controller to specific letters on the keyboard than it is using a phone or computer keyboard. In fact, it can make discussions during Emergency Meetings a bit more complicated. The conversation in Among Us on Switch is even more frantic and quick than it is on PC or mobile, so newcomers may be especially overwhelmed early on.

Overall, Among Us plays on Switch very similarly to how it runs on PC and mobile. The controls are probably going to be the biggest hurdle most players have to overcome. Local and Freeplay options are still available, so it might be a good idea to try the game with friends and get used to how Among Us feels on Switch before hopping into some online multiplayer.

Now that Among Us has arrived on Switch, an entirely new audience can be exposed to this great social deduction game. While the game runs smoothly on Nintendo's console, people who are already used to playing Among Us on PC and mobile may not like the controls as well - and it certainly makes having discussions harder. Overall, though, there aren't too many differences in the Switch version.

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...
