Innersloth launch a huge new update on Among Us bringing many new additions and features that will excite players.

Among Us has always been an easy-to-play game with simple customisations and settings; that being one of the main reasons for its’ success. Innersloth have been planning on making new changes for a while, starting off with bringing the fun game to consoles (PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S). With this huge update being the huge step up in change with us believing the release on console is the reasoning behind this.

In a blog on the Innersloth website, the blog titled ‘New Roles & Cosmicubes’. It mentions the introduction of roles with 4 roles being available now, 3 of which being for Crewmates with 1 being an Imposter role. The Scientist role which reads “Access vitals at any time. Complete tasks to recharge your battery.”. Second Crewmate role is the Engineer which allows you as a Crewmate to use vents. Last Crewmate role and maybe the most exciting is the Guardian Angel which allows a player to save another player from death before an Imposter attempts to kill. The one Imposter role is the Shapeshifter which allows Imposters to disguise themselves as other on-board Crewmates. With these being released with this update, we do not believe these will be the last set of roles introduced.

Innersloth also released an exciting trailer showcasing the new update with the new features and additions.

More into the blog, Cosmicubes were mentioned and explained. Cosmicubes being “Special cosmetic cubes that have themed items you unlock via a branching path. These items tend to be more special or detailed. Different Cosmicubes are bought using Beans or Stars, but their contents can only be unlocked by earning Pods through gameplay.”

Lastly in the blog, the addition of achievements and account linking is spoken about, stating “Achievements will be available on platforms that have them!”. Also adding on about account linking, “New items and XP means a need to be able to aggregate and link your Among Us account to different platforms! For most platforms, you’ll be able to log in, link, and save your progress and cosmetics using the same account.”

With this update being available now, next thing to look out for from Innersloth and Among Us is the release on console which will take place December 14^th. Innersloth will look to add more things in the future to keep the Among Us community happy; so, continue looking out for more updates and news on additions.

Among Us will release December 14^th on PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.

Months of speculations with fans unsure on how it will work on console, Innersloth finally confirm a date for launch.

The post Finally, Among Us to arrive on console! first appeared on Get2Gaming.

Epic Games finally credited Among Us for its Imposters mode on Fortnite, and it’s left us hopefully with a lot more than we expected…

Earlier this year, Epic Games announced Fortnite would be receiving a new social deduction mode, titled Imposters, that sounded almost exactly like the extremely popular indie game, Among Us. 

Fans called Epic Games out (as well as members of InnerSloth the team behind Among Us) for the blatant plagiarism and after two months, Fortnite has finally credited the whodunnit game in its new update.

Imposters on Fortnite

If you aren’t aware, the Imposters mode on Fortnite consists of 10 players, 8 agents and 2 imposters. It takes place on The Bridge, a large multi-room environment in which agents are trying to keep it maintained while imposters are trying to destroy it without getting caught and whenever a dead body is found, chaos irrupts as everyone who is still alive tries to figure out who the imposters are.

So, very Among Us-esque.

The credit to Among Us came very subtly in a tweet from the official Fortnite account that informed followers of the new updates the Imposters mode has received. The new update for the deduction minigame includes features such as “Role Bias”, which gives you a better chance of getting the role you want between Agent and Imposter, and “Open Voice Chat Playlist”, which gives you a better chance to discuss your suspicions between teammates.

🍌Peely Party!🍌

Impostor's mode, inspired by the hit @AmongUsGame, received some updates in v18.20 including:

✅Role Bias – Agent or Impostor? Get a better chance of getting the role you want
✅Open Voice Chat Playlist – Discuss who's being shady

— Fortnite (@FortniteGame) October 12, 2021

The official Twitter account for Among Us then replied it what could be a very cool, yet maybe a slightly pre-planned marketing tweet that launched a thread conversation between the two brands which discussed the possibility of the two games collaborating together in the near future.

While we have no idea if this will be announced officially any time soon, it’s nice to see a big video game like Fortnite realise its mistake and give credit to independent games it took inspiration from.

No matter how big a game from an independent studio might get, it will always be behind games produced by multinational corporations so it is really important companies credit those games when they receive inspiration from them.

The post Fortnite: Is An Among Us Collab Coming Our Way? first appeared on Get2Gaming.

The previously niche indie game Among Us by Innersloth exploded in popularity over the pandemic. It’s been a great way to have fun with friends and strangers alike from two different screens.

While the hype has died down a bit, it’s still prevalent for its robust fundamental approach to the social deduction genre. At the moment, it is available on PC, mobile, and Nintendo Switch. 

Understandably, many players are excited to see Among Us hit PlayStation and Xbox Platforms. It was first announced for Xbox consoles at the end of 2020 and confirmed that the game would be joining the Game Pass catalogue. PlayStation’s announcement followed a few months after in April 2021.

Innersloth has since discussed server issues and revealed that the game’s console versions will be released by the end of 2021. This is later than initially intended, as the game was designed to launch this October. Innersloth has not given a specific date yet, as their ideal release date was supposedly in September. 

Delays to video game development are widespread due to the pandemic. Thankfully, most gamers have understood this. Hopefully, Innersloth can take their time creating an excellent port for the PlayStation and Xbox. In the meantime, the game is available on mobile and PC, making it reasonably accessible to everyone.

The post Among Us for console to arrive late first appeared on Get2Gaming.

The popular, online battle royale game has added a new limited edition mode and it looks a little sus…

Fortnite announced a new limited edition mode yesterday, titled “Imposters“, and it has been reminding people of the popular indie game Among Us, developed and published by InnerSloth.

So much so that even the development team behind the extremely successful whodunnit game have been publically tweeting the similarities between their game and the new mode created by Epic Games.

Fortnite: Imposters

The new Imposters mode is available to play now for a limited time only and consists of 10 players, 8 agents and 2 imposters. It takes place on The Bridge, a large multi-room environment in which agents are trying to keep it maintained while imposters are trying to destroy it without getting caught and whenever a dead body is found, chaos irrupts as everyone who is still alive tries to figure out who the imposters are.

Sound familiar?

Of course, there are certain elements that make it more Fortnite than Among Us- you can make both agents and imposters temporarily look like Fortnite’s banana mascot Peely for example, but the similarities are uncanny.

Several members of the Among Us development team took to Twitter to compare those similarities and also explain how disappointed they are with the plagiarism portrayed here.

Among Us programmer Gary Porter pointed out the similarities between the two environments and sarcastically mentioned how it was okay since they flipped certain rooms around to make it now a full rip-off of the hit indie game.

It's okay tho they flipped electrical and medbay and connected security to the cafeteria. pic.twitter.com/XXVsJPpiXn

— Gary Porter (@supergarydeluxe) August 17, 2021

The community director, Victoria Tran, also tweeted to express how disappointed she was and that a collaboration between Epic Games would have been better instead.

https://twitter.com/TheVTran/status/1427725916994682887?s=20

Despite the international success Among Us became last year, it still is an indie game in the world of big gaming franchises. And even though there are plenty of other games similar to Among Us (Werewolf / Mafia), it is understandable why the development team are upset with Epic Games using the same themes and terminology.
