In my past stories, I’ve chatted about cool gaming stuff. You can find those links at the end of this post. But today, let’s talk about Among Us teaming up with some top indie games!

During the COVID lockdowns, folks found various ways to kill time. But one standout activity was sniffing out space impostors in Among Us. If you’ve put the game on ice since then, listen up: it’s still buzzing, especially with a cool mashup involving big indie games.

So, what’s the lowdown on this fresh scoop? Innersloth, the brains behind Among Us, just dropped news of a brand-spankin’-new Cosmicube. This spacey treasure trove is packing cosmetics from a stellar lineup of indie darlings like Celeste, Undertale, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Untitled Goose Game, A Hat in Time, Castle Crashers, and Alien Hominid.

If the term “Cosmicube” makes your head spin, here’s the deal: it’s Among Us’s version of a battle pass. Once you snag the cube using Beans (the in-game freebie currency), you can get your hands on these cosmetics by splashing some of the currency you earn while playing the game.

Get this — this cosmic extravaganza is up for grabs with Beans until February 28, 2024. And once it’s yours, you can take all the time you need to snag those snazzy cosmetics. And boy, there’s a boatload to snag: we’re talking “25 hats, 18 skins, 12 nameplates, 9 visors, and 6 pets.”

This Cosmicube is a hall of fame for indie gaming awesomeness. I mean, we’re talking about Celeste and Undertale, both top-tier gems. And let’s not forget the pure joy of Untitled Goose Game or the riot of fun that Castle Crashers brought us back in ‘08.

Final Words

If you’ve been out of the Among Us loop, now might just be the time to make a comeback.

The last map, Fungle, with its beachy crash-site vibes, earned some serious love, and the player community is still kicking.

The fresh patch is live and kicking right now. You can dive into it on Steam or any gaming system you’ve got lying around.
