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...

Why An Among Us Chicken Nugget Sold For Almost $100000

Why An Among Us Chicken Nugget Sold For Almost $100000

An Among Us-shaped chicken nugget was recently sold on eBay for the hefty price of almost $100,000, leading many to wonder why it happened.

Why An Among Us Chicken Nugget Sold For Almost $100000

The past year saw a dramatic rise in the popularity of Among Us, a Mafia-reminiscent social deduction game. The latest highlight of the game's influence came in the form of a chicken nugget shaped like an Among Us crewmate, which someone bought for almost $100,000.

The Among Us chicken nugget listing was posted on eBay by seller polizna in late May, and within just two days, the price had been driven up to almost $30,000. There's nothing particularly remarkable about it - save for the fact that it's shaped similarly to the silhouette of a crewmate, of course. Recent months have seen a price uptick for many expensive gaming collector’s items - Pokémon cards on eBay have become notorious for their high prices as of late - but the nugget is an oddity, even in the realm of pricey eBay auctions.

Even if the buyer has plans to somehow preserve the Among Us chicken nugget, $100,000 is a steep price to pay for a food item that could be bought in bulk for far less. Many people are baffled by the price the nugget garnered, and even more are wondering what exactly is the reasoning behind the price tag.

How The Among Us Chicken Nugget's Price Skyrocketed

Why An Among Us Chicken Nugget Sold For Almost $100000

Frankly, there's no straightforward answer as to how bidding escalated to nearly $100,000. When it was first posted, the Among Us nugget's price was set at just $0.99 - not all that unreasonable for one McDonald's chicken nugget. From there, things escalated drastically. There were more than 180 bids on the nugget, and with some of these jumping the price up by thousands of dollars at a time, it's easy to see how the whole auction snowballed. It's worth noting that the 184 bids were made by only 45 bidders, and the eBay bid history seems to indicate some individuals made multiple offers in a row. If so, it's possible this was done to deliberately drive the price up.

It's likely the bidding was further fueled by the official Among Us Twitter account, which made a post about the auction on June 1. The Xbox Twitter account also commented on it, drawing additional attention to the nugget.

For that price it must come with Szechuan Sauce.

Another factor could be the fact that the nugget is supposedly from a BTS Meal, a specialty McDonald's order inspired by the popular K-pop group. The initial poster of the auction also noted they would include some McDonald’s Szechuan sauce (made famous by Rick and Morty) with the nugget upon request. It's unclear whether the buyer will provide any additional updates on the nugget once it's shipped, but either way, the saga has captivated Among Us fans across the internet.

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...
