[p]CREWMATESSSS!!![/p][p][/p][p]WE MADE IT! WE’RE ALIVE! WE SURVIVED THE IMPOSTORS FOR ANOTHER YEAR!!![/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for a ✨stellar 2025✨ full of fun updates, multiple vent cleaning claims, and you-definitely-not-asking-us-about-the-TV-show-and-where-it-is. (It is NOT cancelled??? Why do I keep seeing people claim this please lmao.)[/p][p][/p][p]I wanted to do a silly recap of what we’ve accomplished together this year, but FIRST let’s get through some housekeeping.[/p][p][/p][h2]New Years Eve 2026 Drop[/h2][p]Our yearly tradition is coming! Get a special, limited time NYE 2026 Hat for FREE when you log in starting December 26, 07:00 UTC. Ring in 2026 with your Crewmates and ensure you can be the person in future lobbies going “Oh this hat? It was limited edition. You just had to be there.” Ahhh, FOMO. This giveaway ends on January 31, 2026 so don’t forget about it![/p][p][/p][p]Until then, the Snowflake, Snowbean, and Gift Cosmicubes are BACK! Celebrate the winter holidays and snag them before they melt away on December 31.[/p][p][/p][h2]Innersloth Holiday[/h2][p]Innersloth (that’s us) will be on winter holidays starting now (December 15) until January 5th, 2026. During that time expect less posts on social media (unless I get bored waiting in line for something and start replying to stuff on my phone lol) and no updates during this time. (Victoria not using parentheses while writing a devlog challenge: IMPOSSIBLE.)[/p][p][/p][p]If you encounter any bugs or issues with the game during this time, our player support team will still be helping out! You can email them here or check out the helpdesk.[/p][p][/p][p]Now let’s take a walk down memory lane and see all the horrors tasks we’ve completed this year. Fun fact: this year, everyone on the Innersloth team are confirmed Crewmates. We think. We’re still not really sure about Gary.[/p][p][/p][p]First, let’s reflect on the 2025 Roadmap we released:[/p][p][/p][h3]Improved Matchmaking[/h3][p]Update v16.0.0 back in March brought an important change to Among Us – a new way to create and find lobbies! We got solid feedback from you on what you needed to find your perfect match (thanks to everyone who filled out the Player Feedback form near the beginning of the year), so we added filters, the ability to view settings before you join a game, and more.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]I am still obsessed with the way Crewmates fill up the maps on the Create Game screen by the way. The details of what they’re doing… *chef’s kiss*[/p][p][/p][h3]New Roles[/h3][p]In September, we released two new roles in v17.0.0: Detective and Viper![/p][p][/p][p]The Detective was our first Crewmate role that needed much more involvement and big brain IQ to properly strategize with. (Confession: I am terrible at this role. My brain is too small.)[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]Meanwhile, the Viper got a cool custom kill animation and got to wreak havoc in lobbies. Shout out to this one comment I saw that said “I got puked on by Viper, the animation is grosssss 😂”. Please consider it an honor to be puked on by Viper.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][h2]Collabs[/h2][p]The most recent (and ongoing) collab was with the ConcernedApe himself for a Stardew Valley Cosmicube! This all started when we bullied him into going to the aquarium with us in Seattle back in 2023. (I’m joking.) (But we did go to the aquarium!) Don’t forget to pick it up for a mere 3300 Beans before it ends in February 2026.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Our big collab this year was with RGG Studios to bring the Kamurocho gang to the game in an official Cosmicube. Please tell me you saw the karaoke video we made for it. Please. And if you already saw it, watch it again.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]But that wasn’t all! To celebrate their Version Luna I launch, we’ve teamed up with Genshin Impact to bring a Paimon look to Among Us. The Impostors definitely used it as Emergency Food.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]And back by popular demand was the Pusheen Cosmicube! Who knew something so cute could be so evil. You all truly have yelled at us SO MUCH to bring it back, and I have definitely seen a significant increase in Pusheens running around these lobbies, knocking over juice boxes.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]If you had a keen eye (visor?) you also likely saw our Crewmates (Impostors?) popping up in quite a few other games too! Not only was the Among Us Backbling back in Fortnite, but you could see Crewmates invading What The Car?, Unrailed 2, Tavern Talk, Spirit City: Lo Fi Sessions, and Snake.io.[/p][p][/p][h3]Cosmetics[/h3][p]We released a whole Racing Cosmicube in June! BEAN FOR SPEED. The team was making Fast & Furious jokes the entire month. (It’s not a Fast & Furious collaboration at all but it was too funny making “family” jokes.)[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Security Stuff[/h3][p]We had depreciated 2022 and 2023 versions of Among Us to ensure everyone was on similar versions and got all the improved features, bug updates, and improved security measures.[/p][p][/p][p]Your safety is of utmost importance to us here! ❤ Trust that even if you don’t always hear it, we’re keeping an eye on trouble and doing our best to navigate legal matters, technical requirements, crossplatform measures, and implement safety features to make your time on Among Us as smooth as possible. (Safety from Impostor murders not guaranteed.)[/p][p][/p][h3]TV Show Work[/h3][p]SWEATS NERVOUSLYHELLO…. THE SHOW IS STILL HAPPENING. NEWS WILL COME AT SOME POINT. I AM BEING CHAINED TO SECRECY. THE IMPOSTOR IS BEHIND ME WITH A KNIFE.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Aaaand that’s it! Huge thanks to you all for supporting us, playing games, and doing all your tasks this year. The fact we’ve been able to keep working on Among Us after all these years is crazy – it’s not often this happens, especially in the indie game space.[/p][p][/p][p]We’re grateful! Can’t wait to do 2026 chaos together![/p][p][/p][p]Victoria and the Innersloth Team[/p]

[p]Crewmates![/p][p][/p][p]Just in time for the holidays, we've partnered with Fangamer to get you a new line of official Among Us merch!! [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We worked closely with the team to bring back some favorites in addition to some fancy new designs. Can't wait to see what you get up to with these fun items... just watch out. We can't guarantee there aren't any Impostors mixed in their. (But if there are, just throw them in the vent and it'll be fine.)[/p][p][/p][p]Here's where you can get the items:[/p]

• [p]Worldwide: https://fanga.me/r/among-us[/p]
• [p]EU and UK: https://fanga.me/r/among-us-eu[/p]

[p]And while you're here, we might as well take a closer look at some of the merch:[/p][p][/p][h2]Ejected T-Shirt[/h2][p]Designed by Studio Illustrata and inspired by the golden age of comic books, this comfy shirt is the perfect gear for doing any space-related task. Comes with a bonus Crewmate sticker! Don't ask why it has a knife. It's definitely a Crewmate.[/p][p][/p][h2]Shhhhhhh! Spinning Pin[/h2][p]It really spins! At this point this image should be ingrained in your brains, so might as well represent it in the real world too. Design by Jon Kay and sits at a nice 1.6 inches tall.[/p][p][/p][h2]Sitting Crewmate Plush[/h2][p]A classic bestseller. Designed by Hannako Lambert and produced by Dual Wield Studio, this is the Crewmate you all know and love in a squishy and still-extremely-killable format. So soft. So helpless. Order one in Red, Yellow, Cyan, or Black - or choose the "mystery color" option if you have no fear.[/p][p][/p][h2]DUM Hat[/h2][p]I'm showing this off because it's my favorite cosmetic and I'm biased. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Unlike a normal sticky note, this won't disintegrate in water - it's embroidered on and features a strapback closure. Produced by Dual Wield Studio, design concept and embroidery by GlassEmbroidery, and art by PuffballsUnited. [/p][p][/p][h2]Impostor Beware T-Shirt[/h2][p]See, the 1000 IQ move is to wear a shirt that says "Impostor", and no one will believe you're an Impostor because surely no one would be that silly to be so obvious about it, right? ...Right? This shirt was designed by Tony Kuchar and screenprinted by Forward. Comes with a bonus Kill icon sticker![/p][p][/p][h2]And More![/h2][p]Alright enough advertising - we still have plenty of other items you can check out on the Fangamer store. Seeing you all wear your merch in real life is so so so cool, and we hope you enjoy these items. Appreciate the support![/p][p][/p][p]Victoria[/p][p][/p]

(Or maybe if you give them the right gifts, you can befriend them…?) (…Nah.) Do you think JojaMart can stock Impostor Pesticides?[/p][p][/p][p]Okay have fun! I’m gonna go bother ConcernedApe now.[/p][p][/p][p]Farmer Victoria[/p][p][/p]

[p][/p]

• [p]…[/p]
• [p]……. Ummm.[/p]
• [p]Yep that’s actually it.[/p]

[p]I know. You’re mindblown. But check out the Cosmicube and hope to see you in those lobbies!….You know, any normal player would want the November dev log to end here since there’s really nothing else to say, but I know you. You’re sick. You’re twisted. The other Crewmates will never understand the depths of your darkness. I’ve seen what you’ve done. The lies you’ve told during Emergency Meetings so that you could get away with murder. The unravelling of your core values as you realized how easy it is to manipulate your best friends. They thought you were sweet. Docile. Innocent, even. Then you showed them. You showed the WORLD what you could do when given the opportunity to sabotage the lights. I’m disgusted by you. But also… in awe. Here I am, sitting in the safety of Admin, while you’re out there making a name for yourself. I respect you. I fear you. I hope to never walk along the same path as you because I know that if we were to lock visors, I would be dead.[/p][p][/p][p]Okay bye![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Victoria[/p]
