The Among Us 2025 Roadmap

Oh hey there, Crewmates!

We already celebrated Innersloth’s 10th birthday and the return of the Lunar New Year Cosmicube, so now let’s see what other plans we have for you in 2025. BUT FIRST – AN IMPORTANT NOTE.

NOTE: Please update your games! In early March, any 2022 versions of Among Us will be depreciated (removed) – if your game starts with “v2022” at all, you will be affected. Prepare yourselves and update now for the most seamless transition. The latest version is v2024.11.26. As Among Us grows, we need to ensure everyone is on similar versions for security and feature development reasons. We’ll post again with information when it officially happens – thanks for your understanding!

With our note complete, it’s time for the 2025 roadmap – also known as our game development plans for the year! Of course, all things are subject to change, but we want to continue being transparent about what we’re doing.

Roadmap 2025 – The Year of Plans

Matchmaking Overhaul

Okay! So! With more and more roles, we realized matchmaking needed a makeover so it’d be easier to find the specific settings you like to play with. Wish you knew what the player speed was going to be before joining? If Anonymous Votes are on or off? Us too, and that’s something we’re aiming to get you that within the next month.

Also, when accepting room codes, you’ll be able to check the settings on the lobby before you join. If everything looks right you’ll join in without having to update your region or chat type – it’ll change automatically (if you have the proper permissions)! Pretty snazzy, imo.

Even More Roles! 2? 3?? 4???

We added the Noisemaker, Tracker, and Phantom last June bringing the total number of roles up to 7! Why stop there when we could introduce even more levels of deception and chaos?

We’re being ambitious and aiming to bring in… uh… 2? 3?? 4??? new roles this year. We’re still testing them out for ultimate fun-ness. (Real word I made up.) The goal will be as many as we can, but don’t yell at us if you only get 2. (Fun fact: We have about 12 different new role ideas cooking.) Our goal is to bring our own twist to roles while still balancing gameplay for all platforms, so it’s always an interesting science experiment. Hope you enjoy them when they’re out!

SPOILER: Right now, the most promising roles we’re testing involve poison and maybe some detective work… but we’ll see. 🧐 And now you get to brag that you have insider knowledge because you read the roadmap. Proud of you.

Cosmetics + Collabs

It’s not truly a plan for 2025 if we don’t increase your aura with the finest of bean drip. We’ll have some, killer, cute, and of course fabulous collabs with other studios in the works. You won’t know what hit (or ejected) you.

And it’s not just collab cosmetics either! Our art team is dreaming up some fun Cosmicubes to drop throughout the year with new themes we haven’t dressed these unsuspecting space beans in yet.

Security Updates

Am I being a hater for calling security updates boring? I guess they could keep Impostors away. Hmm.

Anyway, we wanted you to know we’re constantly working on keeping Among Us (and your tasks) running smoothly and compliant with current legal and safety laws. With more server optimizations and anti-cheats, you’re gameplay experience should hopefully continue improving.

Among Us TV

I KNOW. I KNOW EVERYONE HAS BEEN ASKING ABOUT THIS. CBS FREE ME FROM MY CHAINS OF SECRECY I CAN’T STAND IT ANYMOREEEEEEE. Things are COOKING. There will be news SOON.

It’s a blast being the bean who gets to share these plans with you! There’s so much on the horizon for Among Us and the team can’t wait to make it a reality. We’ll be talking about these items and more soon!

Off to charge my headset,

P.S. We’re not the only ones with Among Us plans to share. Schell Games, our partner behind Among Us VR, has news to share on February 20th! Keep those visors peeled.
