The decision to cancel the development of version “2” of the popular game “AMONG US”.

The company, the developer of "AMONG US", decided to cancel the development of version "2" of the popular game, and focus on expanding the features of the current version and the content of the game.

 

There may not be a second edition of the popular Among Us, and instead the focus will be on developing the current version.

 

The American site, GameSpot, stated that the developer Innersloth decided to focus on expanding the features and content of the game, rather than working on appending it to the version that was previously in the media under the name Among Us 2.0.

 

This step was indicated by the company's official blog, as the developer wrote that the decision was taken in response to the recent rise in popularity of the game, which had more than 41 million downloads in the month of September alone.

 

The Innersloth blog stated that "all the content that we had planned for in the second edition will go instead to among S1," adding, "This may be the most difficult option because it means delving into the basic code of the game, and reformulating several parts of it, and we have a lot of things." "Planned, and we're excited to bring new content to everyone while you continue to enjoy the game."

 

According to the American site, these content expansions include new servers, and support for popular features in the game, such as adding new stages, although Innersloth added that there are "a lot of other things planned as well, we just need to prioritize and organize." If you are the mentioned game, you can expect to get all these updates in the future.

 

Innersloth did not provide an accurate definition of when this new content would be expected to arrive, although the developer wrote that working on the servers "currently takes all the development time".

 

Although it was first released in 2018, the use of "AMONG US" has seen a dramatic increase in the number of players in the current year 2020.

 

This is likely due to the sudden increase in popularity of the game on the Twitch platform. According to statistics company Sensor Tower, the site “Among US” witnessed about 18.4 million mobile phone downloads last August, followed by 41.9 million other mobile phone downloads in September. .

 

As with the Fall Guys game, some platforms have been able to play among us for free, as it is only priced at $ 5 on Steam, and mobile devices support a free version.

 

And it seems that the amount of excitement in the story of the game helped it get such a large audience, although the recent rise in popularity has been strange, according to what followers see.

 

The game's simple graphics are well suited for a variety of platforms, so technically speaking, it shouldn't be a problem running on a switch.

 

However, there are special challenges in communicating with players on that platform, not only does it have a text communication system, but it also does not allow voice chat, unless you use a separate application on your mobile device, this means that no one uses voice chat.

 

Among US is also available for computers and mobile devices, and its simple interface uses only a few buttons and prompts on the screen, this makes it extremely easy to control, even on small touchscreens.
