Among Us Gets a Narrative Twist: On Guard Demo Drops
InnerSloth, the studio behind the viral social deduction hit Among Us, is charting new territory. They've dropped a free Steam Next Fest demo for Among Us Story: On Guard, a surprising narrative spin-off available until June 22.
This isn't the chaotic multiplayer fans know. Instead, it’s a story-driven adventure where you play a security guard on a MIRA Research & Development ship. A mysterious murder just happened, and it’s up to you to uncover the truth, clear your name, and unmask the Impostor. It’s a bold move, twisting the familiar premise into a single-player murder mystery just as Among Us celebrates its eighth anniversary. Get ready to explore the lore, meet a new cast of Crewmates, and finally put a face to the terror, even if it might be your own.

Catzye Take
This shift from multiplayer to a dedicated narrative experience is fascinating. Fans will want to see how InnerSloth builds out the lore and characters in a story context. Could this pave the way for more single-player takes on popular multiplayer titles?
