It seems apparent that players wanted to get in on this action on consoles as well. Adding on, the title does not restrict the platforms on which the console player can play. The console variant is compatible with Windows and smartphones as well.

Among Us has garnered a massive fan following through the pandemic. In fact, it is one of the reasons why the game is so massively successful. In the midst of the pandemic, everyone was put under lockdown restrictions. This game enabled friends and close ones to have fun social interactions while socially distancing.

The game’s premise has helped towards its success as well. The title is based on the concept of social deduction. A ship has a crew out of which one or two crewmates are imposters who have to murder the rest of the crew. It is up to the crew to deduct and reason who the imposter is. A voting stage takes place where every player has to cast who they think is the imposter. If a majority is present, the suspected player will be rejected. When too many innocents are ejected, the imposters win. If both the imposters are ejected, the crewmates win.

Other games on the list included Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach etc.
