The latest update for Among Us has implemented new quality-of-life features and bug fixes.
One of the best features added is the Streamer Mode. Streamer Mode in Among Us is essentially a feature that allows you to have your room codes obscured in the lobby. Instead of the actual room code, it is replaced by the words “Click to Copy.” This is quite helpful if you’re streaming the game on Twitch or other similar platforms and you don’t want your viewers to enter your room without permission. If you don’t want to use this feature, it can easily be turned off in the settings.
The developers have enabled account linking in the June 21 Update as well. This allows you to access your cosmetics, beans, stars, and experience in Among Us in one place, regardless of platform. Account linking is available for all platforms except PlayStation and Nintendo.
This update also implements a ton of bug fixes, and you can read some of them below:
- Loading screen now waits for every player in the lobby when loading into a round
- Kills can no longer happen when an Emergency Meeting is being called
- Players can no longer move themselves during the role reveal screen
