Among Us VR Version to Come to Steam in November?

Have you ever been curious to see the Among Us spaceship from the inside? Now it seems you’ll have this possibility just this year. According to a leak from SteamDB, the VR version of Among Us is already scheduled in November. So, buy yourself a headset (if not yet) and prepare to attend an emergency meeting!

Among Us was a great party game from the first release, but it has much improved since, with new maps, new roles (those of a Shapeshifter and a Guardian Angel), and bug fixes. Now, it prepares to conquer another dimension. Everything goes VR nowadays, why Among Us shouldn’t? Just because we have already got used to its retro 2D appearance?

Nothing is known so far about the upcoming game except for the release date – November 10, 2022. The publisher is still Innersloth, and probably there was no third-party developer to outsource the VR version to. This means the experience is sure to be authentic, even despite a new exotic format.

Indeed, porting the game to VR makes more sense than it seems. Even in the original, your character’s vision is realistically bound to a certain area, and this is crucial for the game, as you cannot know what happens outside your vision and can only guess what’s happening according to the bits of information you do have. This makes the game so logical and psychological. Moving to VR will not ruin but rather enhance that incomplete information feature.

While waiting for it, you can play the original version and also enjoy a one-shot manga based on Among Us. It was published in Bessatsu CoroCoro on February 28 and is available in the digital version. Corocoro often publishes manga based on popular video games; for instance, there was even one based on Minecraft.

So, if the release date is true, Among Us players will have a chance to truly appear among other players. Are you ready for it? Have headset – will travel? Tell us about your expectations in the comments!
