InnerSloth, developer of Among Us developer InnerSloth has released some brand-new official merch for the game on the studio’s online store, such as 3D art tiles, beanies, stationery items, and more. The online social game exploded in popularity last year, thanks in part to many streamers showcasing the game on their channels. The game has become so popular that it has even caught the attention of Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai, who recently said that he’s a fan but is concerned about the game’s longevity.
The game’s amusing visuals and engaging mechanics have made it both accessible and enjoyable for a lot of people. Being available to play for free on smartphones and tablets has also definitely helped the game expand its audience and playerbase further. The game was impressively able to reach over half a billion active players last November, making it one of the most popular games ever. And that was before the game was even released on the Nintendo Switch in December.
InnerSloth announced the release of its new Among Us merch on the game’s official Twitter account. Some of the new items that fans can pick up through the company’s online store include a Crewmate Beanie available in different colors, several face masks with a different colored crew mate embroidered on each, and quite a number of sticker sheets. There’s also display tiles that feature designs printed on acrylic in several layers to make a 3D effect. The art tiles can also be customized with available decals to personalize them further.
Interestingly, InnerSlot is working with several groups and artists to design and create new products, all of which have been nicely credited by the developer. According to the new listings, the face mask is made by Stitchback Stories, the art tiles and decals are produced by Artovision3D, and the sticker sheets were designed by Lokii, Shantel Smith, and Tanpopo. The new merch is just the latest in the studio’s growing inventory of Among Us goods. The studio previously released other items such as coffee mugs, blankets, phone cases, shirts, and a whole lot more.
Given that Among Us is a social game that achieved its success thanks mostly to its community, it seems only appropriate that InnerSloth would work with members of it to produce official merchandise for the game. This initiative has definitely led to a lot of great designs for its merchandise and hopefully, the studio is able to continually work with artists and smaller businesses in the future, especially considering how many fan-made Among Us merch and gifts there are out there.
