Among Us developer InnerSloth has announced a collaboration with Dungeons and Dragons web series Critical Role.
This collaboration means players can now bedeck their little space beans with a number of items worn by those intrepid members from Vox Machina, Mighty Nein, or Bells Hells. I am talking about Artagan’s Incredible Brows Visor or the Dust of Deliciousness Nameplate, to name but two.
“Getting to work alongside the wonderful crew of the hit TTRPG show Critical Role to bring some of their magic to Among Us for Gilmore’s Curious Cosmicube has been mind blowing,” InnerSloth said. “Be sure to go to our in-game store and spend some Stars before the Cosmicube is gone.”
As for when that Cosmicube will be gone, that will be 12th November at 8am UK time.
Once those Among Us players have purchased the Cosmicube, they can work towards getting these following themed items:
- Artagan’s Cloak Skin
- Artagan’s Hair Hat
- Artagan’s Incredible Brows Visor
- Chetney’s Eyebrows Visor
- Chetney’s Headband Hat
- Chetney’s Tracksuit Skin
- Dust of Deliciousness Nameplate
- FCG’s Noggin Hat
- Fearne’s Dress Skin
- Fearne’s Hair Hat
- Jester’s Dress Skin
- Jester’s Horns Hat
- Laudna’s Dress Skin
- Laudna’s Hair Skin
- Mister Pet
- Mollymauk’s Garb Skin
- Mollymauk’s Horns Hat
- Moons Over Exandria Nameplate
- Nott’s Cloak Skin
- Nott’s Hood Hat
- Nott’s Mask Visor
- Orthax Manifested Hat
- Pâté Pet
- Scanlan’s Hand Hat
- Sprinkle is “Fine” Hat
- Teatime with Caduceus Nameplate
- The Nine Eyes of Lucien Nameplate
- Vax’s Armour Skin
- Vax’s Hair Hat
In addition to all these new threads, there is also a new kill animation (which you can see in the header above). To get this animation, players will need to equip all of Chetney’s items as an Impostor.
This collaboration with Critical Role comes ahead of cast member Ashley Johnson’s role as “Purple” in the upcoming Among Us animated series.
We first got word of this Among Us adaptation last year. On its announcement, we were given a general overview that read: “Members of your crew have been replaced by an alien shapeshifter intent on causing confusion, sabotaging the ship, and killing everyone. Root out the ‘Impostor’ or fall victim to its murderous designs.”
Since then, famous faces such as Elijah Wood, Wayne Knight and, of course, Johnson have been announced as voicing various crewmembers.
Back in February of this year, InnerSloth and CBS Studios shared a small teaser for the animated series with an image showing an empty cafeteria with pizzas and balloons adorned by a banner that read: “We’re not dead”. Well, actually, it said “We’re dead”, thanks to an ominous splatter of blood down the middle of the banner.
Hmm, seems sus.
