Innersloth reveals how Among Us changed during development and more
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Among Us wasn’t always the breakout game fans know of today. In an interview shared by Nintendo, Innersloth co-founder Forest Willard discussed the title’s origins.
Among Us went through quite a few changes during development. Willard said that players “would draw a role card and roam around a house aimlessly while ‘the mafia’ person secretly ‘killed’ players by drawing a finger across someone’s neck. The tasks also “changed several times” and the ship was initially “always in crisis while the crewmates attempted to hold it together and Impostors could do tasks wrong to hinder players.”
The same interview also touched on how long it took to create Among Us. Since the game was “originally so much smaller,” the team wrapped up development in about seven months.
Here’s the full interview from Nintendo:

After it was previously rumored, it’s been officially announced that Dragalia Lost is crossing over with Persona 5 Strikers.
As part of the event, Dragalia Lost will feature a new story in which Joker and his friends join forces with the Halidom to solve a strange incident. Graphics and animations are included that look like they came out of Persona 5 Strikers. Players can summon Joker as an adventurer, and once his Dragon Gauge is full, he can call upon Arsène to fight in battle. Another adventurer will join the roster as you complete quests as well.
The Persona 5 Strikers collaboration goes live in Dragalia Lost in late January. View the event’s reveal video below.
