InnerSloth released Among Us back in 2018, but it took a while for the title to become an internet sensation. The title exploded this year with streamers from all over the world streaming InnerSloth’s mind-racking game. Among Us has continued to dominate charts across the world, breaking several records. The title has been so successful that a Chinese clone has already made it to app stores. Unsurprisingly, it is causing havoc too. The Chinese clone of the original title has also taken the world by storm. It came out on October 28 and has become the most downloaded free game on iOS devices on China’s App Store. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/DHjnfMEF7zHeHyYHqk6bxM-1200-80.jpg] AMONG US: SIMILAR BUT DIFFERENT? Several Tencent Holdings titles have dominated Chinese game charts for years. Recent titles include Honor of Kings and Peacekeeper Elite. However, their dominance is over as a new entity has taken over the market. Werewolf Among Us by Shenzhen Youliang Technology has toppled Tencent in the Chinese market. It has been downloaded over 478,000 times on Apple’s store in China through November 2. The title had around 116,000 downloads on November 2, beating Tencent’s top titles. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/among-us-clone-is-now-chinas-most-downloaded-free-game.jpg] ALSO READ- Daniel Cormier Has Some ‘Dad’ Queries About the PS5 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/daniel-cormier-has-some-dad-queries-about-the-ps5-playstation-ufc-esports-news/] Among Us is reportedly based on a party game called Mafia, which again, has a Chinese version called Werewolf. The South China Morning Post claimed [https://www.scmp.com/tech/apps-social/article/3108411/among-us-clone-now-most-downloaded-free-game-chinas-app-store] that the Chinese gamers weren’t impressed with Among Us because it is just a remake of Warewolf with a space theme. Among Us took time to spread in the Chinese gaming industry. The climb was rather gradual, but Among Us is now the 10th most downloaded game in the country, even though the title doesn’t have a Chinese in-game language. UPDATES COMING SOONER RATHER THAN LATER? InnerSloth initiated plans of a sequel but shut them down soon to work on the current title. The updates [https://www.essentiallysports.com/among-us-a-new-map-might-be-rolling-out-sooner-rather-than-later-esports-news/] included developing more in-game languages to let the game permeate far and wide. With every popular title, cheating becomes a massive hassle. And this is exactly what happened with InnerSloth’s title. The players have constantly complained of cheaters plaguing the game and hampering gameplay. InnerSloth has informed the fans that it is working on an update to keep this problem at bay. More importantly, a new map is under development that will probably add a different layer to the game that has been challenged in terms of its limited content. 

A Chinese company has developed a clone of InnerSloth's Among Us which is titled
Werewolf Among Us and is dominating Chinese markets.

<h2>Among Us 2021: Mods, Gameplay, Updates, PC Download, System Requirements</h2>
<h2><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-434146" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/among-us-game-e1601565968912-560x315.jpg" alt="" width="560" height="315" />What type of game is Among Us?</h2>
Among Us is a social deduction game heavily inspired by the party game 'Mafia'. Developer Innersloth released the game in 2018, but it only gained popularity in 2020. Streamer Sodapoppin discovered the game first and since then, streamers like PewDiePie, Disguised Toast, Pokimane, Ninja have all played it regularly.

The rules of the game are simple. With up to 10 players in a single game, players can choose whether they want to have 3, 2, or 1 impostor per game based on individual preferences. Impostor/Impostors and crewmates are randomly chosen.

Once the game begins, the crewmates have to finish certain tasks on the map at different locations. The job of the impostors is to kill the crewmates without being suspected. If a dead body is found, both crewmates and impostors can report it. Once done, the players can choose to vote out anyone they suspect or just skip voting.

Another way impostors can win is by sabotaging the reactor or oxygen on the ship. If there are an equal number of impostors and teammates by the end of a voting session, the impostors win. If the crewmates successfully identify the impostors and vote them out, they win. Crewmates can also win if they successfully complete all the tasks before the impostors can do their jobs.

Developer Innerslorth also announced earlier that they were working on an Among Us 2 title. Although, shortly after the original game blew up in popularity, the developers announced that the sequel was canceled for the time being. They wanted to focus all their efforts on making the current game better.

Among Us also allows players to customize their appearance. Players can equip different hats to make their appearance quirky and fun. Additionally, players can also have a mini crewmate as well.

There are different Among Us Mods also available. For example, one mod allows players to have a lobby of 100 players. Another mode allows crewmates to pass through walls, making them look like hackers.

The recent update also made the game better in terms of functionality and promised to add a new map as well.
<h2>Platforms Among Us is available on</h2>
Among Us is currently available on Steam for PC and is also available on iOS and Android. The game also has cross platform play enabled for players to enjoy with their friends on different platforms.
