Summary
Last year, CBS Studios announced that it wasworking on an animated Among Us TV series, bringing the viral pandemic-era game to the small screen. At Summer Game Fest, we got our very first look at the crewmates in action.
Among Ushas an all-star cast comprising of Patton Oswalt, Dan Stevens, Elijah Wood, Liv Hewson, Randall Park, Yvette Nicole Brown, Ashley Johnson, Debra Wilson, Kimiko Glenn, Phil Lamarr, and Wayne Knight. While we’ve now seen a glimpse at the series, we haven’t heard any of the crewmates speak just yet.
Each crewmate has a unique role in the show, so the colours aren’t just aesthetic this time. For example, Red is the captain, Purple is the head of security, Orange is HR, and Green is the unpaid intern.
Who’s The Imposter?
Naturally, at least one of the crewmates in the Among Us TV show will be an imposter, making this a whodunit murder mystery.
We get a few clues in the show, like Green venting in front of Orange, Black, Light Blue,andPurple (via CCTV), with a strange gooey shadow creature lurking in the background throughout several of the clips.
We also see several of the iconic locations from the Skeld map in the reveal, like the Reactor and MedBay.
There are a bunch of characters at the end holding a meeting (and eating a whole load of pizza in the Cafeteria), with a few colours we don’t know the actors of yet. In total, there are 11 different crewmates, so odds are there’ll be more than just one imposter lurking among them.

WHERE TO PLAY
Among Us is a hit online multiplayer in which a team of crewmates must identify the Imposter before it’s too late. A take on the classic game Mafia, you must complete tasks aboard a spaceship, then vote out who you think is ‘sus’.
