Emergency Meeting: Among Us Is Coming To VR

[{"content":{"text":" Today, Innersloth , Schell Games , and Robot Teddy announced the award-winning party game Among Us is coming to VR and will be playable on Meta Quest, PlayStation \u00ae VR, and SteamVR headsets. The announcement trailer debuted at The Game Awards on December 9, 2021. Innersloth, developers of Among Us , saw their space-based, sleuthing multiplayer game quickly rise to prominence as friends, families, and communities came together to repair ships and avoid the devious antics of Impostors. In 2020, Innersloth tapped video games consulting firm Robot Teddy to help bring the game to additional platforms and manage other facets of the business. Schell Games, a leading virtual reality development studio, will work with both companies to bring Among Us to virtual reality platforms where players can fully immerse themselves in the universe Innersloth created. \u201cWe are grateful to the community who continues to share our game with friends and family and support us,\u201d said Victoria Tran, Community Director at Innersloth. \u201cSchell Games has a legacy of creating award-winning virtual reality titles, and we couldn\u2019t be more excited to create a brand new Among Us experience for our existing fans and new players. We can\u2019t wait for players to become Crewmates in a first-person environment.\u201d Among Us is moving from a 2D to a first-person, 3D experience that places players in the heart of the Skeld and retains the core mechanics fans love. The virtual reality edition will continue to support the multiplayer experience. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to take all the features players worldwide have enjoyed from Among Us and tailor them to a fully immersive experience in virtual reality,\u201d said Jesse Schell. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot to love about Among Us and this partnership presents a perfect pairing of the runaway success of the original game and the upward trajectory of the virtual reality ecosystem.\u201d \u201cWe are looking forward to continuing our existing relationship with Innersloth and Schell Games on this new development adventure,\u201d said Callum Underwood, Director of Robot Teddy. \u201cVirtual reality is growing in popularity, and this growth will only continue to increase as new platforms and technologies emerge. We couldn\u2019t be more excited to work with both companies to bring this next iteration of Among Us to fruition.\u201d The original Among Us is currently available on Steam , Nintendo Switch , itch.io , iOS , Epic Store , Windows Store , and Android , and will be available on Xbox and PlayStation on December 14, 2021. Release dates and additional information about Among Us VR will be announced at a later date. To learn more about Among Us VR, follow us on Twitter or check out the website .
