Among Us had built quite a huge fanbase over the last year. The 2018 title found a rejuvenated and massive popularity last year, due to its fun, simple, and minimalistic gameplay. However, with huge popularity, the community started demanding more from the game. As a result, we ended up seeing the emergence of quite a huge number of community-made mods in the game that introduce new characters and abilities. And now, after a long wait, developers at InnerSloth are here with a much-awaited update.

InnerSloth had been originally working on a sequel to Among Us. However, seeing the meteoric rise of the original, they chose to work on this one and add new content instead. Finally, the much-anticipated Airship update is here in the game. The official Among Us Twitter handle shared this amazing news earlier today.
