The VR adaptation of the popular party game Among Us has sold over 1 million copies across all platforms, according to an announcement by the development team. Among Us VR, developed by Innersloth, Schell Games, and Robot Teddy, replicates the original game’s team-based play of betrayal, where players must complete tasks aboard a starship while trying to catch an impostor who is attempting to murder the crew.

The VR version of the game was released in November 2022 and has reached the one million unit mark in less than ten weeks. It was launched simultaneously across Quest 2 and SteamVR headsets priced at $10 and will soon be available on the upcoming PSVR 2, set to release on February 22.

Apart from the sales news, the development team has also announced several updates on the horizon, including new maps, custom lobby settings, and improved accessibility features. Additionally, in-game reporting and voice chat moderation will be added to improve player safety.

According to the development team, Among Us VR has been played over four million times by users across 122 countries, with an average of 44,000 matches held per day. The game has already dedicated over 89,100,000 minutes to tasks, sabotages, and betrayal. Among Us VR is among several viral flatscreen titles that have been adapted for VR, such as Friday Night at Freddy’s and SUPERHOT, both of which have high-performing VR adaptations.
