ALL RISE!

Update v18.0.0 is here which means it’s time for a brand new Crewmate role that’ll shake up your next meeting! Read on to get all judge-y and see what else is in the update.

We Listen And We Don’t Judge

We’ve all wanted to have that final say in an Emergency Meeting – especially when you can’t trust anyone’s alibi. Votes aren’t in your favor? Convinced you know who it is? This is the perfect moment for the Judge:

• Use your new Overrule ability to eject a Crewmate of your choice. It doesn’t matter if everyone else skipped voting or chose a different Crewmate.

• Be careful! If you use your Overrule ability on someone who doesn’t turn out to be the Impostor, YOU’RE the one who gets ejected.
• Complete tasks quickly to unlock the ability. Better make sure it’s ready for the next Emergency Meeting!
  • You can change the amount of tasks needed to activate the ability in the Role Settings on the Dropship.
• This is a powerful ability, so use it wisely. Overrule can only be used once per game!
• What happens if there’s more than one Judge in a game and they use Overrule at the same time? Good question! In this case, the Judge who used their ability first gets it. All other Judges will be “refunded” and get to use their Overrule in another Emergency Meeting.

If you want more tips from the team, make sure you watch the full Judge trailer. Otherwise, that’s all there is to it so grab your gavel and powdered wig! Court is in session!

Along with the arrival of the Judge we have a couple quality of life updates for you:

• We added a new Match Info Guide so you can check the players, roles, and settings chosen for the game. Maybe this will help you find the lie in someone’s alibi?

• The Detective’s Interrogate ability now has a cooldown after Emergency Meetings. Giving suspects a little time to escape the super sleuths will add a bit more tension and balance the Detective.

If you have any trouble with this update, remember to send a ticket to our helpesk. Before you run off to grab your judge robes, let’s take a peak at some fanart!

One of my favorite parts about these devlogs is finding and sharing the amazing artwork you make. Since the release of the Among Us Show and the announcement of Among Us Story: On Guard you’ve been busy churning out so many great creations! Let’s check out some of them now.

First up is this piece from Lotostar on Twitter! They captured this moment between Guard and Engineer perfectly. Not sure that’s the best use of coffee beans but it definitely worked in this case.

Our second piece of art is from Rover on Twitter. They happen to be another Purple enjoyer (and who can blame them?). They did a wonderful job of taking the classic Crewmate shapes and styling them in a new way. I’m a big fan of how Chef looks.

This next piece from hypernov4 on Twitter is really giving that brooding investigative vibe. There’s nothing like a Guard in the rain. I can hear the saxophones already.

Let’s give a big hand to these creators! If you want to show us your work, be sure to tag us on our socials: Twitter, Bluesky, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

Off to get my Judge wig,

Gather round, Crewmates!

I know some of you have been wondering, whispering even… “Where’s part 2 of the Roadmap?” Well, WONDER NO MORE! Our first half was full of some of THE BIGGEST NEWS with the release of the Among Us Show and the announcement of our brand new narrative game, Among Us Story: On Guard.

Let’s take a look at what’s in store for the rest of the year.

Roles

You love them. We love them. So we’re making more of them. They always bring some fresh chaos to lobbies. That’s why we have two new roles planned, with one of them arriving just next month. I was advised by my attorney to say nothing more.

We’ve been doing A LOT of testing on these roles to make sure they don’t feel overpowered and play nicely with the existing roles in a way that feels fun and fresh. It’s sorta like coffee – some like a bold and dark roast with no cream, and others (like me) enjoy a shot with sweetened milk. We want to try and introduce roles across the spectrum of player styles.

We hope you enjoy what we’ve been brewing!

Quality Of Life

As we add more roles, your games can get a little more complicated. Trying to remember your settings, the number of roles and their percentages can get a bit difficult. That’s why we’re adding a Match Info Guide. This should make it easier to keep track of how you or your lobby host have set up the game. We plan on adding this along with our new role next month!

New Cosmicubes

Fashion is just as important as finishing tasks… dare I say even more important (don’t tell Admin I said that). That’s why the art team is busy designing some hot new looks for the next time you want to look fly in the Dropship.

We love cooking up new themes, so don’t hesitate to throw ideas at us (I see you Crewmates asking for Indie Cube 2 and Ace Attorney, but no promises) so you can throw Beans or Stars towards some fresh drip.

Collabs

We have friends everywhere. And we LOVE a good collab. We started off strong this year with some new and returning collabs. But why stop there?

You’re going to be in for a treat as we’re not quite done with collabs for the year – keep those visors peeled. And just like with Cosmicubes, keep telling us who you’d like us to collab with next.

Among Us Story: On Guard

Since our reveal and demo time we’ve heard your cries to get the game out. We’ve seen your fantastic fan art. We’ve also seen you thirsting over the beans (looking at you, dating sim wanters).

The team is working hard to make sure everything is set up the MIRA HQ way for your trip into the simulator, so hang tight! We’ll have you proving your innocence finding the true Impostor in no time.

Wooooooooo, that’s what we got for Part 2 of our 2026 roadmap! We started the year with some excitement and if all goes to plan, there’s a bunch more coming your way.

Ta ta for now,

Dors

Grab your Beans, Crewmates!

You’ve flooded our comments with requests, and now we can finally say it. The return of our largest Cosmicube ever, THE INDIE COSMICUBE is here! Our friends agreed that their characters should make a return to eject innocent Crewmates.

Holy moly, Crewmates!

It’s been really awesome seeing all your excitement for the announcement of our new game Among Us Story: On Guard and the drop of our Among Us Show.

If you haven’t seen the show yet, you can stop reading and go watch the entire series on Paramount+! But here’s a treat – the first episode is on YouTube for free! I’ll just leave it right here for ya so you don’t have to go far.

We hope you’re loving the show decorations around The Skeld along with the Showbiz Cosmicube cosmetics (my favs are Purple, Orange, and Red). If you haven’t picked up the Cosmicube yet, you still can – it’s sticking around forever and costs 4,000 Beans. If you feel you need something a bit classically space themed, remember to pick up the Cosmic Cosmicube for 70 Stars.

All of this has been a labor of love and we’ve been so excited about bringing you more ways to enjoy Among Us. Speaking of which, how many of you tried out the demo for our new narrative adventure, Among Us Story: On Guard??? If you haven’t already told us what you think be sure to shout at us (nicely) on our socials.

We can’t wait get the game into your hands and see what you think of the whole murderous adventure. <3

It’s Not Old. It’s Just Aged

If you didn’t get the chance to celebrate Among Us turning 8, don’t worry! You can check out the VODs of our 8th birthday bash and our after party with Owen Dennis by either going to our YouTube or watching below!

New Task: Take A Nap

Admin is going to be taking some well deserved time off to relax, celebrate our announcements, binge the show, and prep more fun for the remainder of the year!

We’ll be a little less active while we’re taking our vacay – Admin will be back on July 13th! But don’t worry, we will still be monitoring for any Impostor shenanigans. If anything seems amiss, remember to send us a ticket to our helpdesk.

Off to find a drink with a lil umbrella in it,

Hello, Crewmates!

As of today, we will no longer be supporting any 2024 versions of Among Us. If you see “v2024” on the bottom left of the main menu, you will be affected. Please update your game to v17.4.0 as soon as possible so you can keep making MIRA HQ proud by doing tasks!

Among Us is still expanding with features, roles, bug updates, improved security, etc. and getting Crewmates on similar versions helps with that development.

Thanks for understanding and sticking with us no matter which version you’ve been playing on.
