We just announced the newest map coming to Among Us – The Fungle – dropping sometime this October. Check out the trailer below!

We’re gonna have a lot of new tasks (dice those veggies and roast those marshmallows) for all you spacebeans to get your hands on. But it’s not all fun and games… because there’s also murder! Hooray!(?)

We can’t wait for you to be able to play, betray, and master The Fungle.

PAX West

We just got back aboard the Skeld not too long ago after adventuring in Seattle, WA for PAX West!

Thank you to everyone who came by the booth, tried their hand at our real life cardswipe, snapped a picture our life-sized Crewmates, or purchased some sweet swag.

We really felt the love and it was SO cool seeing a bunch of you in person – you made our first convention so memorable and fun. We hope to do even more cons in the future so fingers crossed…!

Thanks for being in-spore-rational,

Dors

Let’s go over some ideas on what we feel makes a ‘good’ Among Us player.

When it comes to being a Crewmate, there are qualities we hope you take to heart when interacting with one another. The more considerate we are of everyone, the better the game!

A respectful bean is a good bean. Showing respect to your fellow player is an ongoing effort. It doesn’t stop at being kind once. Being mindful and owning up to your mistakes if you’ve made one goes a long way to being accepting of your fellow Crewmates.

Give a helping hand. Not everyone is at the same skill level. (And if you want to go pro, use our in-game filters to find more advanced level games.) In fact, tricking others into believing something else is part of the game itself! However if you see something that someone is misunderstanding, a kind word goes a long way. Sometimes this could be a simple as giving a quick tip using in-game chat.

No one’s bigger than the group. It is a group game after all! Do your best to play by the group rules and remember to ask if something isn’t clear.

Be a good sport. Everyone loves to win a game and sometimes the sting of defeat doesn’t feel so great. That’s okay. If it ever feels overwhelming, take a break! There’s always a chance to win on your next round – just don’t take it out on your fellow Crewmates or Impostors.

Don’t be a creep. Threats, harassment, and sexual suggestions have no place in Among Us. If you see bad actors acting this way be sure to report them so we can act appropriately against them and make sure Among Us remains a safe space for everyone.

Here’s a handy link if you need a reminder on how to report someone!

If you thought any of this sounded like our Code of Conduct – you’re right! It’s very similar. We want to make sure you and your fellow Crewmates can have a good time and this guide and our Code of Conduct are a good way to help that happen! We can’t do it without you, ya know.

See you around,

Dors

Hotfix 2023.7.12 is out with these changes:

• Chat bounce has been removed (SORRY IF IT MADE YOU NAUSEOUS)
• Text will save if exiting out of free chat box
• On all platforms

We appreciate all the respectful feedback, and are excited to keep working on our fun plans!!

Running to back to Communications,

Dors

While you were getting all comfy with the Pusheen Cosmicube and giving some well deserved pets to the new fluffly members of the crew, we were busy with our newest update: 2023.7.11

PLEASE UPDATE YOUR GAME to ensure the game is working and you’re getting the latest fixes.

Fun Stuff

Last update, we brought you a brand new hub in the form of our new main menu! The changes to our look and UI continue with our brand new Quick Chat!

The old radial wheel is gone and now we have a Quick Chat Builder which slides out from the right side of your screen! See phrases you use regularly? Want easy access to ‘yeet’ ? That’s where the new favorite option comes in.

Other features of the new Quick Chat include:

• Refined categories
• More remarks and phrases
• Color coded Crewmate names
• A nice little visual bounce when the Quick Chat Builder opens

Our UI expert, Lucy worked really hard to redesign Quick Chat to be more user friendly and make accusing your friends a breeze. Before you start chatting away, let’s take a look at what else is going on!

Ghostface is Back!

They’re baaaaaaaaack. Ghostface has made a reappearance in Among Us. Check out the details here!

And of course, we have some other fixes coming your way during this update.

Patch Notes

• Fixes for various achievements
• Fix for various cosmetics
• Map can now be opened with a controller if the chat menu is open during an Emergency Meeting
• [PS4] Virtual Keyboard no longer crashes game when opening
• [PS4/5] Names of blocked players are no longer visible in the friends list if they are blocked on PSN
• [Switch] A green dot no longer appears in the middle of the main menu after leaving a local lobby
• [XBOX] Crewmate list now opens after pressing the View button

That’s all the notes for this round, Crewmates. We’ll keep squashing bugs as they come up so you can betray each other without worry. I’m gonna pass it over to Mike for the bug zone.

Typing furiously,

Dors

I want everyone to know that when Dors asked me to do a Bug Zone write up, he labeled on his draft as “Mike’s cool section”

Wha-what!? I have to be cool? Oh…no pressure or anything! (wipes sweat from visor)

Uh, okay, so. Bugs.

Some players have noticed an issue recently where the kill button wasn’t working under certain conditions. The bug has been squished (yay), but anyone who still has an issue should please submit a bug ticket along with screenshots and video if you can get one. That’s how we know what to squash, y’all! Known Bugs

• [Crossplatform] An issue where some players receive a message “Sure is taking a while to sign in” and cannot complete log in process.
