If you are an Among Us player, this news is for you. The popular game of social deduction is finally making its way to video game consoles. Starting December 14 will be available on Xbox One, Xbox Series S | X, PS4 and PS5.
In the case of the Microsoft console, it will also be available in the Xbox Game Pass subscription service. And if you have a Sony console, they will have access to exclusive Ratchet & Clank add-ons that will make the game more customizable.
As expected, Among Us will support cross-play and multiplayer . This means that if your friends have a different platform, they will be able to play without problems in the same game. That is, Windows computers, video game consoles and Android or iOS mobile devices.
In addition, Innersloth, the developer of the video game, has announced that the physical editions of Among Us will soon begin to be sold. These will be available in stages in different regions.
On December 14, the Crewmate Edition will arrive in Europe. Somewhat later, on January 11, 2022, it will arrive in Latin America. Impostor Edition and Ejected Edition will be released later in the spring of 2022 in several territories, although the firm does not specify in which ones.

Among Us, the game that exploded with the pandemic
Among Us was released in 2018, but it spent its first two years of life almost unnoticed. However, with the arrival of the pandemic in 2020, everything changed and the game went from being anonymous to one that everyone wanted to play.
As a result of the confinement, users began to use more and more digital platforms and sought new forms of entertainment. In addition to the fact that many streamers started playing Among Us, the game exploded.
The truth is that its mechanics had little to do with the most popular titles of the moment. Among Us featured an environment of social deduction in which two impostors are tasked with killing all the remaining crew of a spaceship.
Do you think you know who the impostors are? Can you find them before they kill you? Or you will probably lose a life by mistake. This mechanic, similar to that of the classic game The Assassin, has earned the interest of millions of users.
