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 Next Update Is Changing Meetings

Why Among Us Next Update Is Changing Meetings

A coming Among Us update from InnerSloth will change the meeting screen, adjusting the user interface to accommodate 15-player lobbies and more.

Why Among Us Next Update Is Changing Meetings

Since its popularity spiked in 2020, Among Us has had to evolve rapidly, taking on new features, a high player capacity, and new maps. In some senses, the process is just getting started, and there are aspects of the game that will soon never look the same. One of these is the game's meeting screen, which is changing when Among Us' next major update arrives.

Meetings are ultimately the focal point of Among Us, since the real goal for crewmates in each match is identifying and purging Impostors. Meetings are when players put on their sleuthing or bluffing caps and arguably get to have the most fun - at least if they're in friendly company. Meetings give players a chance to joke around, even if one of them is secretly the Impostor picking off other players one by one.

The new meeting screen is coming because of plans for 15-player lobbies, InnerSloth explained in an April 27 blog post. The existing one is simply too small to handle that many people. Increased lobby sizes became a necessity after the introduction of the Airship map, which many players have argued is too large to support even 10 players, the current limit.

How Among Us 15-Player Lobbies Will Affect The Game

Why Among Us Next Update Is Changing Meetings

The new map's size has been making it difficult for players to snoop on others and find out what they're up to, as streamer Pokimane pointed out after The Airship's launch, and too easy for Impostors to slip away after a kill. A higher player density could alleviate some of these problems. Among Us matches won't need to fill all 15 slots, of course, but there have also been worries that 15-player Among Us could be too chaotic for meetings and general gameplay. For example, the simple appearance of crewmates can make them difficult for colorblind players to tell apart without obvious accessories, and 15-player matches means six new - possibly even harder to distinguish - colors will need to be introduced.

"Workshopping" for solutions to the color problem is said to be underway, and those fixes could also hypothetically impact meetings. InnerSloth has already said the new meeting screen changes will include a new intro that "accentuates the information between the reporter and who exactly died between rounds." Perhaps players will be able to tag each other somehow for easier tracking, which could then carry over into the meeting screen.

There's no news yet on when the next major update will drop, but information on the new colors is due to be revealed in May. If InnerSloth has the new meeting screen or anything else ready to reveal, it would be logical to pair it with that news. The developer could also choose to stagger news, updates, or both, which would have the advantage of reducing server loads and isolating unexpected bugs. Either way, Among Us may end up looking dramatically different by 2022.

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...
