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 Switch Launch Affected The Airship Map

How Among Us Switch Launch Affected The Airship Map

According to InnerSloth, Among Us' Nintendo Switch launch affected the Airship map's release date. Here's why the Switch affected the Airship.

How Among Us Switch Launch Affected The Airship Map

The Airship map in Among Us is finally arriving at the end of March. For fans who've been waiting for the new map, the Airship can't come soon enough. However, according to developer InnerSloth, Among Us' Switch launch affected the Airship map's release. Here's why.

Among Us arrived on Switch right around the same time that the Airship map was announced at The Game Awards 2020. While the Switch version of the game was playable soon after an announcement was made, the Airship has taken a bit longer to get into Among Us. It's been over three months since the reveal trailer at The Game Awards, and some fans were growing concerned the new map was going to be delayed.

Fortunately, that's not the cause. The Airship's release date has been confirmed as coming to Among Us on March 31st, 2021. It will feature new rooms, new tasks, and all sorts of fun features for players to find. While confirming the Airship map's release date, developer InnerSloth also shared a dev post detailing why the Airship map took so long to release, and how the studio went about getting it out before the end of March.

Why The Switch Affected The Airship's Release In Among Us

How Among Us Switch Launch Affected The Airship Map

In a dev post, InnerSloth shared that porting Among Us to the Nintendo Switch is one of the reasons the Airship map took a while to release. The studio, which is only comprised of five people, was working on getting the Switch port out. Then, once the Switch version was available, it meant yet another platform to get the new map into. According to the post, InnerSloth knew the Airship "would have messed with the Switch launch, so we hard stopped to improve Switch launch."

Even after this, the devs needed approval on those platforms - and to get the map ready for numerous mobile versions, Among Us on PC, and the new Nintendo Switch port. All of this took time, of course, especially for such a small indie studio. Ultimately, though, the Switch port was one of the contributing factors to why Among Us' Airship map took so long to release.

Now, for many eager fans, the wait is thankfully nearly over, and a whole new audience is able to experience the wonders of Among Us thanks to the port on Nintendo Switch. The Airship map will release on the Switch - and all other platforms where Among Us is available - on March 31st, 2021.

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...
