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 Among Us Needs More Official Roles

Why Among Us Needs More Official Roles

Roles in Among Us are very popular, and there are countless unofficial mods out there. But it's time for InnerSloth to add more official roles too.

Why Among Us Needs More Official Roles

Since its launch in 2018, the core gameplay mechanics in Among Us haven't changed all that much. Developer InnerSloth updates the game regularly, but content updates focus on bringing new maps to the game (which often involved new tasks as well). The roles in Among Us remain the same: Impostors try to kill everyone else, and the crewmates perform tasks and try to figure out who the Impostors really are. Now, it's time for InnerSloth to add more official roles to Among Us.

The most recent update for Among Us added the Quickchat feature, and the new Airship map is set to release sometime in 2021. The new map will include some new rooms and tasks, but the roles seemingly will remain unchanged. There's still an Impostor (or more) and there are still crewmates. This has proven to be a great premise, which is why Among Us has become so popular, but it's starting to feel a little stale.

This is most evident by the large number of mods that add roles to Among Us. While mods in Among Us aren't required to have fun, they do offer more variety in terms of gameplay. Modded roles like Sheriff and Doctor have proven especially popular, and the number of fan-made roles being modded for the game continue to rise. This is indicative of just how in-demand more roles are, and it's one of the reasons why InnerSloth should add more official roles to Among Us.

Why More Roles Could Make Among Us More Fun

Why Among Us Needs More Official Roles

There's a seemingly endless supply of Among Us roles for modders to add, but eventually the amount of role mods will plateau. Roles have proven to be popular for the game, though, and it's surprising that InnerSloth hasn't taken advantage of this by introducing more official roles into Among Us already.

Admittedly, this could alter Among Us' core gameplay mechanics quite a bit, which may be why InnerSloth is hesitant about changing the game too much. Still, additional roles could be a part of a completely different game mode. Players who want classic Among Us can still enjoy it, but a new game mode could feature some of Among Us' more popular modded roles.

A similar approach was used by Town of Salem, the social deduction game where many of these new role mods in Among Us were borrowed from. InnerSloth could very realistically take the same route and use a new game mode to introduce more official roles into Among Us. It'd be a great way to shake up gameplay and keep the game feeling new.

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...
