A new update has been shipped to the beta branch of Among Us, and it includes changes that can make the gameplay more interesting as well as difficult for the crew members. While the update won’t be available to play in the current version of Among Us, players may choose to opt into the beta to test the features out.

Here are the changes in the new Among Us update:

1) The host can select a new setting which makes the players’ votes anonymous. This change will help the impostors avoid suspicion when they choose to not vote for each other.

2) The task where players have to connect the four wires has been made colorblind-friendly. Each wire now has a specific shape and can be connected to the other wire having the same shape.

3) The taskbar can now be set by the host to show up only during emergency meetings. It can even be set to not show up at all. This will make it significantly harder for crewmates to spot out impostors since keeping an eye at the taskbar was one of the easiest ways to identify impostors.


To opt into the beta version of the game, simply right-click ‘Among Us’ in your Steam Library and go to ‘Properties’. Once you’re there, click on the ‘Betas’ tab, and select ‘public-beta’ from the drop-down menu.
