FIRST Look at Among Us Animated Series Revealed

Feb 03, 2024 9:00 AM

Fans of the popular multiplayer game Among Us are in for a treat as InnerSloth, the creators of the game, in partnership with CBS Studios, have revealed a sneak peek at the upcoming Among Us animated series. The shared photo showcases an empty cafeteria with a banner that reads "We're not dead", with a noticeable blood splatter obscuring the word 'not'. This announcement follows up on last year's news that the game would be adapted into an animation.

The series appears to mirror the game's concept where crew members are threatened by an alien shape-shifter intent on causing chaos, sabotaging the ship, and eliminating everyone. There's currently no release date for the animated series.

Among Us gained massive popularity in 2020 despite its initial 2018 release, involving players in tasks to maintain a spaceship with the twist of an imposter among them tasked with killing the crewmates. Players must identify the imposter to survive. Among Us is available on various platforms including PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, iOS, and Android.

When will the Among Us animated series be released?

The release date for the Among Us animated series has not yet been disclosed.

Regarding the game itself, Among Us by InnerSloth is a social deduction game that skyrocketed to fame during the COVID-19 pandemic, as players around the world connected through its engaging and interactive gameplay. The game's success has led to a surge of similar titles in the social deduction genre and a vibrant community of players eagerly anticipating new content and adaptations, exemplified by the excitement surrounding this forthcoming animated series.
