'Among Us VR' Rebranded Into 'Among Us 3D' To Accommodate PC Flatscreen Players, New Content Coming, Demo Next Week - Trailer

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.

You’re used to navigating Among Us in 2D, but what if you could BE the Crewmate? See life on the Skeld through the Crewmate’s eyes visor? 

Among Us VR is a party game of teamwork and betrayal.

Grab your crew and headset and launch into the VR version of this hit multiplayer game for 4 - 10 players. Work together in this virtual spaceship to complete tasks before one or more Impostors kill everyone aboard.

Built exclusively for VR, you will enjoy all the same gameplay as the original game, but now in an extremely immersive environment where everything (yup, everything!) is close up and personal.

This new 3D experience will place you and our suspicious spacebeans in the heart of the Skeld, with all of the core mechanics of teamwork and betrayal you know and love. The VR edition will continue to support the multiplayer experience too, of course! Now you can really have an emergency meeting together.

VR version won’t be compatible with the original Among Us game, so you’ll only be able to play against other VR beans.

Sound the alarms! Push the button! An exciting, new roadmap has arrived... and it's a big one!

What's that?! Among Us 3D?! Could it be?!

You read that right, my beans. Among Us is going three dimensional... again. But this time: no VR headset required! We're beyond excited to reveal a brand new teaser trailer for the upcoming installment of the Among Us universe: Among Us 3D!

This crossplay experience brings the first-person aesthetic introduced in Among Us VR to Steam PC players. Yap with your crew directly in-game with native proximity voice chat. Experience the tasks you know and love, along with some new ones, with intuitive first-person controls. Customize your bean with an ever-growing and endless number of cosmetic combinations.

And before you ask... No, sorry. The game won't be crossplay compatible with the original Among Us.

But it doesn't stop there — Among Us 3D will bring new updates and changes alongside it.

Returning fan-favorite tasks , an abundance of fresh styles and cosmetics for your beans, shiny new Stardust for easier wardrobe expansion, even more Limited Time Events to shake up gameplay, and a brand-new game mode tagging alongside the launch ... We'll be sharing more details on what all this means and looks like very soon— just know, you have a lot to look forward to in 2025!

Additionally, over the coming months, Among Us VR will be rebranded to Among Us 3D, putting its full crossplay support between VR and PC players front and center. In other words, VR Crewmates: don't panic when you see a new logo and name on the game's artwork and title screen! It's purposeful, we promise!

"With Among Us 3D, we're excited to bring the first-person perspective to an even wider audience," said Ryan Hall, Project Director at Schell Games. "By uniting VR and PC players, we’re opening up even more ways to brutally betray your friends—your whole crew can get in on the fun!"

"The launch of Among Us VR gave players the chance to step inside the game, bringing an entirely new level of suspense and hilarity to the social deduction experience,” said Victoria Tran, Community Director at Innersloth. “This crossplay feature strengthens our amazing community, making it easier than ever for players to team up—or backstab each other—regardless of their platform."
