Among Us update adds Detective and Viper roles, 17.0.0 patch notes

Among Us just went live with a new version 17.0.0 update, and with it, Detective and Viper roles have been added.

Detective is a Crewmate role, which lets you interrogate Crewmates, reveal locations, solve murders. Viper is an Imposter role in which you can dissolve corpses with acid (a new kill animation is also included).

Here’s a full rundown of what’s included today:
