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 Much Among Us Costs On Switch

Among Us is out now on Nintendo Switch, and although the mobile version was available to players for free, the Switch port of Among Us isn't.

How Much Among Us Costs On Switch

InnerSloth's hit social deduction game Among Us is out now on Nintendo Switch, but it isn't free like the mobile version is. In fact, the Nintendo Switch version of Among Us costs just as much as the game does on Steam, which actually makes a lot of sense since it also includes certain clothing items which aren't immediately available to mobile Among Us players.

Although the game originally launched in 2018, it wasn't until earlier this year that Among Us took the gaming community by storm and became one of the most-watched titles on streaming sites like Twitch. Fresh off some much-deserved wins at The Game Awards 2020, along with the reveal of a brand-new Among Us map, recently Nintendo announced InnerSloth's popular title was coming to the Switch console - and then revealed it was available immediately.

For players who already have Among Us on their phones and/or PCs, they might not be as interested in getting yet another version - unless everyone in their home wants to play Among Us at the same time, that is. Thankfully, Among Us on Switch costs $4.99 USD - the same price as it does on PC. This means buying a copy of Among Us to have on a portable device like a Switch, as well as purchasing it on PC, is still cheaper than buying most other video games - many of which off much less replayability than Among Us does.

What Problems Among Us' Switch Crossplay Brings

How Much Among Us Costs On Switch

Playing Among Us on Switch is pretty much exactly the same as the experience on other platforms, only the controls are different and players must use the touchscreen keypad to participate in Emergency Meeting discussions about Impostors. While there may not be any brand-new features which are exclusive to Nintendo's console, playing Among Us on Switch does offer crossplay with both the mobile and the PC versions of the game - something which is both good and bad, thanks to hackers.

Hackers and cheaters in Among Us have been a serious issue ever since the game rose in popularity, and although InnerSloth is working on anti-hack and anti-cheat software solutions right now the only thing most players can do is ban and kick players who they think are cheating. Crossplay in Among Us is great for players who are using different platforms to be able to interact with each other, but it also means all the new Nintendo Switch Among Us players are now at the mercy of the game's PC hackers. Because of this, and also because of the inherent dangers of communicating with strangers online which are prevalent in every mobile title, parents should be cautious when buying Among Us on the Switch for their children this holiday season.

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...

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...

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...
