Innersloth\u2019s Among Us became incredibly popular back in 2020, despite releasing in June 2018. With popular Twitch streamers such as Pokimane and Disguised Toast shining a light on the game, it seemed like a sequel was guaranteed to arrive. Now, four years after launching the game on Android, the developers have shared their insight on why Among Us 2 never arrived. Among Us devs didn\u2019t \u201cget far\u201d with Among Us 2 planning Developers Innersloth invited players to ask questions via Reddit on June 15, prompting Redditor Moon_Chirp to ask about Among Us 2. The player asked: \u201chow far did you get into development of Among Us 2 before you decided to cancel it and focus on the first game?\u201d Despite rumors stating the team had begun development in August 2020, Innersloth co-founder Marcus Bromander stepped in to offer an update: \u201cNot very far at all. It was only in planning mode.\u201d Fellow developer FWFB elaborated on Bromander\u2019s statement too, saying: \u201cWe didn\u2019t really start at all. Pretty much just brainstorming what would need to go in to make Among Us 2 interesting. Puffballs has mentioned some other stuff like picking up items. Roles was a big thing. That kinda stuff.\u201d Comment byu\/innerslothdevs from discussion inAmongUs While Among Us 2 is off the table, the devs did suggest a \u201cyouth-friendly\u201d version of the game could arrive after replying to Redditor GDJT: \u201cI wouldn\u2019t put it out of the question. We\u2019ve had ideas for a mode like this before.\u201d \u201cIt kind of shows that we didn\u2019t plan for our audience to be quite so young that there\u2019s a baseline level of murder and lying.\u201d For now, Innersloth is working on a VR port of the first game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Among Us devs reveal Among Us 2 plans that were ultimately scrapped InnerSlothAmong Us developers Innersloth explained why Among Us 2 never became a reality and just how far along they were with the game before deciding to ditch it.
