Among Us crewmate plushies have arrived. There have been impostors out there, but developer InnerSloth has unveiled its officially licensed Among Us plush, and it is as adorable as imagined.
Hot off the release of the new Airship map in Among Us, developer InnerSloth is already focusing its attention towards what is next for its massive who-dun-it franchise. The Among Us IP has branched out far beyond just gaming, so making things like apparel, toys, or stuffed plushies makes all the sense in the world.
The newly announced Among Us crewmate plush looks just as lovable as the in-game counterpart. The product itself is relatively small at 6in x 4in, but there are also twelve colors to choose from. The officially licensed product is explained as being "round, squishy, and absolutely not an impostor." Each Among Us crewmate plush costs $20 USD. It is very likely that fans will purchase plenty of these crewmates, as Among Us is extremely popular, and even collecting all of the colors is an easy sell from a marketing perspective.
Interestingly enough, developer InnerSloth recently announced that the art of Among Us would be revamped in the near future, which sounds a bit drastic. The style of the game is a major part of its charm, and that would include the crewmates, of course. But with official plush toys being announced and for sale, it is likely that this art style revamp has more to do with small animation improvements and touch-ups than anything else, as the impostor takedowns and adorable crewmates of Among Us will likely remain the same.
Among Us is currently available for Android, iOS, PC, and Switch. An Xbox Series X|S release is planned for 2021.
