Release date confirmed for Among Us Story: On Guard

Innersloth has officially announced that Among Us Story: On Guard will release on February 17, 2027, across PC, Nintendo Switch 2, iOS, and Android platforms. This marks the first narrative-driven spin-off in the Among Us franchise, which is known for its multiplayer social deduction gameplay.

Gameplay focuses on solo narrative experience

Unlike the original Among Us, which involves multiple players working together to identify a hidden impostor, Among Us Story: On Guard is a solo experience. Players assume the role of a guard on a spaceship who is falsely accused of murder and must clear their name by investigating the crew and uncovering the killer.

Characters and roles in the narrative

The game features eight distinct character roles, including Operator, Management, Guard, Chef, Scientist, Engineer, Doctor, and Captain. Players will interact with these roles to gather clues and identify the impostor or impostors among the crew, creating a branching narrative experience.

Visual style and demo availability

Innersloth has stated that Among Us Story: On Guard will retain the same visual style as the original Among Us, maintaining its signature minimalist art direction. A demo of the game is currently available on Steam, allowing players to experience the gameplay and story before the full release.
