The surprise hit of 2020 Among Us, changed the plans of Innersloth to create a sequel for its 2D, multiplayer party game. This week Victoria Tran, Community Director of the game revealed why is the development team taking so long to release the updates for the game.
Among Us launched in 2018, but maybe due to the current state of the world and the huge help of streamers, the game gained incredible traction pretty late into 2020 ” that meant A LOT of change for us” affirms Tran. “Not to dive into too much organizational stuff, but not only did we need to switch back to working on Among Us after thinking it was done, but we also needed to set ourselves up to more sustainably to work on the game.”
One of the most expected updates to Among Us is ‘The Airship Map’, the free update was announced on the Games Awards where the game was awarded as the Best Multiplayer Game and Best Mobile Game of 2020.
Innersloth has also been consistently working on expanding the game on different platforms, the game is now available on Nintendo Switch, the first console launch for the game.
