Among Us Lore: Imposters are Parasitic Shapeshifters

Among Us lore is sparse, but we know that The Imposters are parasitic alien shapeshifters.

Among Us has seen an incredible rise in popularity over the last month. The multiplayer game of teamwork and betrayal, which launched in 2018, has suddenly become the most-watched game on Twitch. Among Us has 4-10 players attempt to maintain a spaceship and return home, but there are also Imposters among the crew that are looking to sabotage the operation. The game recently reached 85 million downloads, and also had 1.5 million players online simultaneously on Sept. 4.

The surge of popularity has many players searching for Among Us lore, but sadly there isn't much to discover.

Discussions of the game's lore have been abounding across the internet, including a recent thread on the game's subreddit. Disappointingly, there just isn't much out there yet. We do know that the crew is working in tandem with a headquarters. It is also clear that The Imposters are parasitic aliens with shapeshifting abilities.

Considering that lore is a major request of the fanbase, one would hope that players will learn more about the world of InnerSloth's Among Us with the sequel, which has been confirmed as in the works by the devs.

Among Us is currently available on Android, iOS, and PC.
