At long last, the multiplayer phenomenon that is Among Us is coming to PlayStation. InnerSloth's super popular game of cooperation and sabotage will be released for both PS5 and PS4 later this year.
If you're unaware, Among Us exploded in popularity when Twitch streamers discovered the game. Up to 10 players take on the roles of space-faring workers, doing mundane tasks to keep things moving along. However, one or two of the players are assigned the role of Imposter, and it's up to them to kill the others. Meanwhile, they have to stay under cover and avoid suspicion, and everyone has to work together to point the finger at the right players.
It's a simple concept, but it's one that's proven to be hilarious with the right crowd. While the popularity has peaked already, it's exciting that those on PS5 and PS4 will get to join the fun soon. The game will be cross play with other platforms, and it'll even include some Ratchet & Clank cosmetic goodies to boot.

I think I’ve had my fill by now. It was pretty fun while it lasted though.
I remember there was an article about the devs saying that it was impossible to port the game to the PS4 and Xbox One due to the reliance of the keyboard. Guess that article (or interview to be exact) is now poorly aged huh lol
Think this is a little late tbh. I would have been more interested to play it when all the hype was rampant.
@SoulsBourne128 The devs being all 4 of them. There’s an absolute reliance on the keyboard which makes the Switch version far more of a chore to play on the TV. There will always be workarounds but for a team of 4 already struggling to maintain the game... it’s quite the task to port it to as many consoles as possible.
@nessisonett Yeah, I can see why. Still, good for them for managing on porting the game to consoles. Even if I'm not entirely interested on the game (is not bad, just not my cup of tea, as the true fun is when you and the rest of the players are socializing).
I hoped this "thing" would avoid Playstation. What next? LoL? DotA2? or just Xchat?
Meh. Played a couple of matches and got bored super fast.
Great for those who play however!
Not my thing. At all.
But I'm happy for the hordes of people who likely were waiting for this announcement.
@LemonHaze Jeez don't have to be a jerk over a simple little game. You're probably the kind of person who harrass people for having a Switch or Xbox.
I stopped playing Among Us and no longer unironically play/love it, but I don't go around shaming people for playing a damn video game.
Also *tried
NOOOOOOO PLEASE THERE'S AMONG US EVERYWHERE, I CANT ESCAPE IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Probably the only Multiplayer Online Game I wouldn't mind trying if only for the murder mystery element behind it.
About 18 months to late really, Im not sure how the text to chat is gonna work on console either.
@LemonHaze You know what, be a toxic jerk, I literally don't care. Whatever happens to you isn't my problem, especially after dealing with a similar person a year ago, I realized that dealing with people only here to harrass users aren't worth your time, so honestly, if you're gonna throw another rude remark at me, don't even bother replying.
@LemonHaze what? I have no idea what you're saying!
Hard pass but happy for those that wanted it.
