As the clock ticks closer to 2024, Innersloth, the developer behind the popular social deduction game Among Us, has decided to celebrate the occasion in a unique way. In a recent announcement on X, formerly known as Twitter, the company revealed that players who log into the game by January 31, 2024, will be rewarded with a special item: an exclusive New Year's 2024 hat. This initiative is part of Innersloth's ongoing efforts to engage and reward its community.
This giveaway is the latest in a series of events that have marked a significant year for Among Us, which celebrated its fifth anniversary. The game has maintained its popularity through continuous updates and engaging collaborations with a variety of intellectual properties. One of the most notable events of 2023 was the game's unexpected partnership with Vampire Survivors. This collaboration led to the release of the Emergency Meeting DLC in December, an expansion that introduced elements from Among Us into the Vampire Survivors universe. Players could explore a detailed recreation of the volcanic Polus map and take on the roles of crewmates facing alien threats. This crossover DLC became available on PC, Xbox, and mobile platforms, with plans for a Nintendo Switch version in the near future.
The New Year's 2024 hat is a stylish accessory designed to add a festive touch to the game's environment. It is a silver top hat adorned with a golden ribbon and a star on the side, offering players a unique way to celebrate the new year in-game. While the hat maintains its distinctive color scheme, players can combine it with various face masks and costumes to create a personalized look. Some of these additional cosmetic items are available in the Indie Cosmicube, which features items from other indie games like Celeste, Undertale, and A Hat in Time. This Cosmicube will be available until February 28, 2024.
In 2023, Innersloth followed its roadmap for Among Us, which included several significant updates. These updates ranged from the release of The Fungle map to collaborations with other franchises like Pusheen. The company also made user interface adjustments and introduced new Cosmicube tracks, providing players with more options to customize their characters with unique cosmetic items.
While Innersloth has not disclosed specific plans for Among Us in 2024, the game's sustained support and updates, even five years after its initial launch, highlight its continued appeal. The game has carved a niche for itself in the gaming community, thanks to its engaging gameplay and the developer's commitment to keeping the content fresh and relevant.
