After receiving an immense amount of popularity from over the world for Among Us, Innersloth (the developers Among Us) had revealed their plans for Among Us 2 (a sequel of the game which would’ve had more functions than that of the existing game).

Stating the code build-up of the game to have outdated as their primary reason. Since Among Us was built in 2018, the game didn’t support advanced features. It seemed to build a new game way easier than recoding the entire game for the devs.

However, weeks after watching the persistence amount of daily users, the developers announced the cancellation of the sequel and instead, working on improving the parent game Among Us. That means all things planned for the sequel will now be appearing in the existing game.

So, now let’s take a look at what new content will be making their way to the game Among Us in the upcoming days.
