New Quick Chat is here! | v2023.7.11
Time for another update Crewmates!
While you were getting all comfy with the Pusheen Cosmicube and giving some well deserved pets to the new fluffly members of the crew, we were busy with our newest update: 2023.7.11
PLEASE UPDATE YOUR GAME to ensure the game is working and you’re getting the latest fixes.
Fun Stuff
Last update, we brought you a brand new hub in the form of our new main menu! The changes to our look and UI continue with our brand new Quick Chat!
The old radial wheel is gone and now we have a Quick Chat Builder which slides out from the right side of your screen! See phrases you use regularly? Want easy access to ‘yeet’ ? That’s where the new favorite option comes in.
Other features of the new Quick Chat include:
- Refined categories
- More remarks and phrases
- Color coded Crewmate names
- A nice little visual bounce when the Quick Chat Builder opens
Our UI expert, Lucy worked really hard to redesign Quick Chat to be more user friendly and make accusing your friends a breeze. Before you start chatting away, let’s take a look at what else is going on!
Ghostface is Back!
They’re baaaaaaaaack. Ghostface has made a reappearance in Among Us. Check out the details here!
And of course, we have some other fixes coming your way during this update.
Patch Notes
- Fixes for various achievements
- Fix for various cosmetics
- Map can now be opened with a controller if the chat menu is open during an Emergency Meeting

That’s all the notes for this round, Crewmates. We’ll keep squashing bugs as they come up so you can betray each other without worry. I’m gonna pass it over to Mike for the bug zone.

I want everyone to know that when Dors asked me to do a Bug Zone write up, he labeled on his draft as “Mike’s cool section”
Wha-what!? I have to be cool? Oh…no pressure or anything! (wipes sweat from visor)
Uh, okay, so. Bugs.
Some players have noticed an issue recently where the kill button wasn’t working under certain conditions. The bug has been squished (yay), but anyone who still has an issue should please submit a bug ticket along with screenshots and video if you can get one. That’s how we know what to squash, y’all!
