'Among Us Story: On Guard' Is A Single-Player Mystery Game Coming To Nintendo Switch And PC - Screens & Trailer

Among Us Story: On Guard is a narrative-driven single-player experience set in the Among Us universe, reimagining its themes of trust, deception and survival through a focused story campaign.

Players enter a controlled simulation at MIRA R&D as part of the new Crewmate training program, taking on the role of Guard, the ship’s security officer responsible for maintaining order and ensuring the crew reaches its destination safely. When a shocking murder occurs aboard the vessel, the mission quickly spirals into chaos, forcing Guard to investigate the incident while under growing suspicion themselves.

Players must gather and analyze evidence, interrogate crewmates and navigate tense accusation sequences where dialogue choices and testimony directly shape outcomes. Every decision matters, with time playing a critical role - delays increase the risk of further Crewmate losses as the Imposter continues to strike.

Welcome to MIRA Research & Development! Take a step into our simulator to start the new Crewmate training program. Your first task? Become Guard! You're in charge of shipwide security and ensuring the crew gets to their destination safely. Everything will be fine, provided an Impostor doesn't start murdering Crewmates!


With today’s release of the colorful and chaotic animated Among Us series and the upcoming debut of the franchise’s first-ever single-player experience, Among Us Story: On Guard, we’re excited to expand this universe in ways fans have never seen before,” said Forest Willard, CEO and co-founder of Innersloth. “Whether you’ve been with us since the early days or you’re jumping in for the first time, this is just the beginning of what Among Us can be.”

Players can look forward to a limited-time demo of Among Us Story: On Guard, which will be available from June 15 - 22, as part of the celebration for the 8th anniversary of Among Us.

Additional details will be shared via official channels in the coming weeks.

Hypothetically, if any murders happen, you'll need to prove your innocence and find the Impostor before it can get to the rest of the crew... and you. We advise solving murders with The MIRA Method!

  • M - eet the Among Us universe in a whole new way. Step into the world of the Guard, tasked with maintaining security on the ship. You're the first and last line of defense against a universe that wants to kill the crew.  
  • I - dentify the Impostor. You've trained for this. Murders? False accusations? This might be difficult for someone who hasn't already been honed into a detective mastermind by years of Emergency Meetings. Admin didn't raise, emotionally neglect, and eventually abandon a quitter.
  • R - eap the rewards of your investigation. Who is an Impostor (there might be more than you think) and which Crewmates can you trust? Inside the simulation, explore three unique endings that are paramount to improving safety for the good of all Crewmates. Probably.
  • A - nd complete tasks. As per the Crewmate Handbook you definitely agreed to, murder and murder accusations do not absolve you of your workplace duties. Complete tasks to progress through your mission and discover clues to build your case against the Impostor.

Meet a colorful cast of Crewmates and find out which one of them puts the “I” in “Impostor”. Have fun getting to know everyone! (Try to ignore that any of them might be plotting your death.)

  • Operator: That's you! Help MIRA with their new Crewmate training program as you navigate life as Guard.
  • Management: Your lovable, caring, committed, always-approachable boss who might have written this description.
  • Guard: A hard-boiled private eye you control as part of the simulation. Cynical and suspicious - exactly who you need in charge of shipwide security.
  • Cook: Sweet, innocent, kind, and just a few days from retirement. Definitely not about to get murdered by an Impostor...
  • Scientist: Always going on about plants and science and stuff. Just be careful they don't talk you... to death!
  • Engineer: Wrote a long bullet-pointed summary of their skills and responsibilities , but we didn’t read it.
  • Doctor: When not working, they're a streamer. (Sometimes even when they are working, they're a streamer.)
  • Captain: Not really into confrontation, but they are into care-frontation! <3

Among Us Story: On Guard is coming to PC (Steam) and Nintendo Switch, and is available now for pre-order on Steam.
