Among Us to finally release new Airship map: patch date, first look, more

The Among Us community are finally getting a new map from Innersloth after months of waiting, and patient players are getting rewarded with the biggest map in the game to date, for free.

The online multiplayer social deduction game once took Twitch and the livestreaming community by storm with thousands swarming the indie title that originally released back in 2018.

Since then, its viral popularity has also brought with it an insatiable audience who want new ways to dupe, deceive, and lure crew members into the jaws of the Imposters.

Ever since teasing The Airship in early December 2020, there’s been a huge wave of anticipation for players who’ve been craving a new map for the game.
