Among Us Adds New Ways To Betray Your Friends
Announced through June’s Nintendo Direct, Among Us‘ newest major update brings two new crewmate roles, one new imposter role, improved UI features, additional lobby presets, and more.
The two new crewmate roles are the Tracker and the Noisemaker. The Tracker is able to track and locate a crewmate’s position on the map to sus out the Imposter. The Noisemaker, on the other hand, sends out a distress signal when killed. The visual indicator from the Noisemaker’s death is able to easily rally and pinpoint the Noisemaker’s location to more readily deduce the Imposter.
The Phantom is the final role added in this update: an Imposter role able to vanish for a short amount of time. Using this vanishing ability to escape or secure a kill makes the Phantom a swift assassin who can open up new strategies.
Game Presets from the Lobby Settings option can allow players to simplify the game without additional roles, while the Roles Galore option can change how often roles like Tracker, Guardian Angel, and Engineer appear.
Hide N Seek now has two presets available, with Pitch Dark and Flashlights for darkness and light playstyles, respectively.
Among Us has not just seen new updates in the core game recently, but at Summer Game Fest, Innersloth showcased an upcoming animated series based on the game with Randall Park, Yvette Nicole Brown, Kimiko Glenn, Phil Lamarr, and more included in the cast.
Be sure to update Among Us, so you can play and interact with the breadth of the game’s new features out now. The full patch notes are below.
