There’s a new update for Among Us, and here’s the complete list of changes and fixes added with this patch. The online multiplayer social deduction game was developed and published by American game studio Innersloth in 2018. The game lost its popularity in the first periods, but it is still played by a wide fan base. The latest version, released a while ago, is pretty extensive and brings several changes to the game. Check out the Among Us February 28th update below.
Among Us February 28th Update Patch Notes
Errr… it was February, and boy, if it didn’t go by in a flash. I hope it was a great month full of finished tasks and you were able to suss out those Impostors. This month we have some sweet things to share for Among Us, including some really cool new cosmetics, changes to our announcements, and various fixes as a part of your latest update – v2023.2.28!
Updates
Fun Stuff
Our first collab of the year begins with the Guardian Cosmicube, available on our store for 3500 Beans! This cube is packed full of cosmetics so you can chase Impostors, pet your pets, and complete your tasks as your favorite light-wielding Guardians from our friends at Bungie. Be sure to get your Guardian Cube by May 30, 2023, before it disappears!
Patch Notes
- Our announcements have a brand-new look to them! Not only will it have that new Skeld smell, but you’ll have the ability to see past announcements we’ve posted in case you want to see what happened in prior updates!
This is what our announcements used to look like:
While this has been working well – the team thought it could do with a little sprucing up. That’s where our UI expert Lucy comes in! Thanks to their efforts, we now have a page that looks a little something like this:
Doesn’t this look great? I can’t reveal too many secrets, but this is just the first of our passes for updated UI for Among Us! We’ll have plenty more in store for some cool new looks.
And, of course, we did some serious fixing in this patch to make sure your game runs smoother!:
- ‘Freeplay’ is now called ‘Practice’
- New updated player report and pet petting icons
- Pets no longer give away an Engineer’s position when venting
- Guardian Angel can no longer protect Crewmates while comms are sabotaged
- Shapeshifters no longer get banned from match when attempting to shift into player who has left the match
- Shapeshifters are no longer considered Crewmate Ghosts in matches with 2 or more Impostors
- The first ejected Impostor now becomes a Ghost Impostor, rather than a Ghost Crewmate
- Crewmates are able to win a match by completing tasks even after the first Impostor is ejected in a 2+ Impostor match
- Players are now unable to see players jumping out of vents and teleporting to the Cafeteria when Emergency Meeting is called
- Polus – The upper and lower horizontal doors for decontamination can now be opened
- Admin now shows location of dead bodies
Bug Zone
I bet you didn’t think I’d just keep writing and writing and end up down in the Bug Zone, too, did you? Well… Good news is that Krys is helping me doublecheck our list of known bugs for v2023.2.28! Thankfully, the list of bugs isn’t too long and we’re hoping to have these squashed ASAP:
- [Hide n Seek] Flashlight can’t be moved while pet animation is in progress while using a controller
- [Hide n Seek] Flashlight cone will reset its position if there is no player input after 8 seconds
- [Classic] Crewmates killed at the same time as venting will see the vent arrows persist while being a Ghost
- [All Modes] Player Ghosts can shoot out of the map when attempting to haunt and immediately opening the Settings menu
- Killing while petting your pet can cause the pet animation to keep playing
- Vent arrows stay on screen if killed while venting
- Players will see indefinite black screen if internet connection is lost while loading into an online game
That’s all for bugs right now! We’ll keep you updated as we knock more out with our next updates.
