Among Us is showing no signs of slowing downing in 2021. The smash-hit murder-mystery title will soon receive a new Airship map that will give gamers a whole new area to deceive and manipulate their friends. This major update will almost certainly inspire new players and veteran Impostors to dive into the social-deduction game. That means players will be faced with a choice that is almost more nerve-wracking than picking who to vote out during an Emergency Meeting: What costume should they give their character?
Developer InnerSloth has included a sizable menu of cosmetics that players can mix and match. Modders have also created their own custom skins in Among Us, so there's no shortage of ways for fans to show off their unique fashion sense when they're in-game. All of these options can make selecting an outfit for players' avatars a little overwhelming for newcomers.
Luckily, there are a handful of combinations that can make any Among Us players impersonate pop culture characters. Most of the following costumes use a free hat included with the free-to-play mobile version of Among Us. Many of the outfits in this list will look even better with their complimentary skin that PC users and anyone who paid for the premium app have access to. Here are the best Among Us costumes.
Best Among Us Costumes: Jason Voorhees
While it might not be Halloween season, the Jason Voorhees outfit is an Among Us classic that not only fits the game perfectly but can actually help Impostors score sneaky kills. The mask and torso gear doesn't have any parts that jut out and increase the model size of the astronaut, which means it will be more difficult for other Crewmates to spot anyone wearing the Jason outfit compared to a player who's using a larger hat or has a pet trailing them. Hopefully, no one finds the hockey mask "Sus."
Best Among Us Costumes: Angel and Devil
This is the best-themed costume pair in all of Among Us, and best of all, the devil outfit is completely free. One player needs to select the red astronaut and equip the Devil Horns hat, while the second player has to pick the white astronaut and the premium Angel Halo hat. Both ensembles can look even better if the devil player throws on the Black Suit and the angel player selects the White Suit. Almost any torso will suit the hats, making this combination one of Among Us's most customizable outfits.
Best Among Us Costumes: Rambo
Dressing like Rambo is another way players can flaunt their style while not increasing their astronaut's size too much. This skin combination consists of the Black Bandana, and throwing on the Military torso will make the outfit even better. The Dark Green, Lime, Brown, or Black astronauts complement this combo's color pattern perfectly.
Best Among Us Costumes: Elvis
Dressing like the King of Rock 'n' Roll might get players noticed more, but it's one of the flashiest and funniest costume choices in Among Us. The Pompadour hat is large, but it's undeniable how great it looks with the White Suit and Purple astronaut color.
Best Among Us Costumes: Elf
Finally, the Elf outfit is a unique look, especially if players have the Christmas Elf hat, but using the premium Elf hat (without the ears) can work just as well. The military torso gear is ideal because it stays with the green color scheme, and either the Lime astronaut is the clear option here, but Black can also work because it matches with the Christmas Elf hat's ear color. All of these options can be tweaked to fit anyone's personal style; Among Us, players should experiment with the outfits the enjoy the best, especially users who have purchased any cosmetics.
