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 New Sheriff Role Could Be Different From Mods

How Among Us New Sheriff Role Could Be Different From Mods

Innersloth is officially adding in a Sheriff role to Among Us, and it could be a bit different from the fan-created role mods that have appeared.

How Among Us New Sheriff Role Could Be Different From Mods

In the past six months, countless mods have arrived in Among Us, the social deduction game from Innersloth that's become a huge part of pop culture. One of the most popular fan-created mods is the Sheriff role, but now Innersloth has announced it will be adding in an official version of this role soon. Here's how the official Sheriff role may be different from the mods.

The Summer Game Fest 2021 trailer for Among Us showed off a lot of exciting new features, including teasing a fifth map. The trailer also revealed new roles would be coming to the game, although only Scientist and Sheriff were confirmed. Modded roles have become wildly popular in Among Us, so it's perhaps not too surprising that Innersloth is going to add in a few official ones of its own. However, the trailer didn't really elaborate on how these new roles will work.

Presumably, the Sheriff role will work in a similar fashion to the way the role mod has already. The Sheriff mod in Among Us allows a player assigned that role to shoot a crewmate they believe to be the Impostor. If they're right, then the crewmates win the game; however, if they're wrong, then the Sheriff dies as well. It's a high risk and high rewards mechanic that would definitely be welcome in an official capacity, but Innersloth's Sheriff may not work exactly like the mod does.

Why (& How) Innersloth's Sheriff Role May Be Different

How Among Us New Sheriff Role Could Be Different From Mods

In the popular modded version, Sheriffs typically only have one shot. Innersloth may increase the amount of bullets a Sheriff has, or it may take away this feature completely. The gameplay footage of the Sheriff from the Summer Game Fest trailer didn't show the player with any specific weapons, so it's always possible the role is more aligned to deduction aspects, like examining a murder scene or being able to see clues, rather than a more vigilante-type approach.

It's also possible Innersloth will take away such a steep penalty for shooting the wrong player. While only having one choice amps up the tension in Among Us, it may discourage some players from trying out the new role. However, there will need to be some sort of penalty or limit introduced to Sheriffs, in order to keep those players assigned the role from simply running into a round with guns blazing. So, it's certainly possible the Sheriff will function more like a Detective role in Among Us, searching for clues and trying to track down the Impostor with a new set of special abilities.

So far, it's hard to predict exactly how much the official Sheriff role in Among Us will compare to the modded versions. However, it's fairly likely the two versions will be similar in at least a few capacities, even if Innersloth makes a few changes.

What Among Us Least Sus Names Are

What Among Us Least Sus Names Are Appearing unsuspicious is a vital aspect of playing Among Us, and choosing the right name is an important part of that. What names are the least sus? Naming characters in Among Us is one of the funnest aspects of the game. Names can be a great way for players to make their friends laugh, or a way to confuse other players and even fly under the radar. However, a suspicious - or sus - name can be a surefire way to get ejected. So, what are some of the least sus names in Among Us now? Player perceptions regarding sus names in Among Us have changed with the game. When Among Us first rose in popularity last year, something as simple as naming a character "Honest Abe" or "Trusty Bob" could inspire trustworthiness. However, that's not really the case anymore. Most players will see this naming convention as a ruse, and it might actually backfire - making other crewmates more suspicious of someone with "Honest" or "Trusty...

Among Us Concept Art Shows How Fast Crewmate Design Came Together

Among Us Concept Art Shows How Fast Crewmate Design Came Together Newly released concept art for Among Us shows that the simple design of the crewmate was settled very early on in the development process. Concept art for Among Us has emerged online, showing that the design of the crewmate characters in the game was remarkably similar to the result and was finalized very quickly by developer InnerSloth. The game, which actually released way back in 2018, has become a surprise hit over the last month or so. In fact, the popularity of the indie title has risen so much that it has overtaken other surprise successes like Fall Guys on streaming site Twitch. Among Us takes the basic concept from social deduction board games like Ultimate Werewolf and transfers it to a video game experience. Players take on the role of crewmates carrying out basic tasks on a spaceship, while one is an imposter who is trying to kill off the rest of the crew. Psychological manipulation and deceit play an importa...

TellTale Games The Wolf Among Us 2 Trailer News & Latest Updates

TellTale Games The Wolf Among Us 2 Trailer News & Latest Updates Though there's been little news on The Wolf Among Us 2 since its announcement back in 2019, that's finally changing. Here's what we know so far. Telltale Games announced the return of The Wolf Among Us upon the studio's 2019 revival, but there have been few updates about the project since. Based on Bill Willingham's Fables comic series, the first game was released over the course of five episodes in 2013 and 2014. It served as a prequel to Fables in which players controlled Bigby Wolf (a.k.a. the Big Bad Wolf), the sheriff of a hidden New York community occupied by fairytale characters called Fabletown. The story followed Bigby as he investigated mysterious murders in Fabletown, a community that had previously been fairly safe for a long time. The original Wolf Among Us game was praised for its noir tone, visual style and story. Now, after years without news on The Wolf Among Us 2, a recent Game In...
