Amongst Us – an animated collection is coming from CBC Studios

The partaking multiplayer online game is getting a brand new lease of life on tv present. 

Due to information damaged by Selection, we’ve realized that Innersloth’s wildly widespread sport Amongst Us is getting a tv collection adaptation.

Amongst Us, which launched in 2018 and blew up through the pandemic, is described as “a celebration sport of teamwork and betrayal.”  It sees gamers making an attempt to outlive on a spaceship with an alien invader and voting out gamers who’re suspect, or “sus”.

In case you’re unfamiliar with Amongst Us, right here’s the sport’s logline:

“Members of your crew have been changed by an alien shapeshifter intent on inflicting confusion, sabotaging the ship, and killing everybody. Root out the ‘Impostor’ or fall sufferer to its murderous designs.”

Will probably be fascinating to see if the present’s addictive playability can translate to tv. We’d guess every episode will play via as soon as sport, except the the entire collection covers a single sport with a spherical per episode. Additionally, with the characters who all look the identical (save for his or her color) fairly how will it work? Are these spacesuits coming off?

There’s additionally the matter of tone – the characters are cute, however the premise is probably fairly grim with a murderous shapeshifter bumping off the crew and the crewmates spacing those that they assume is the killer!

CBS Eye Animation Productions has partnered with the Innersloth to develop the collection. Owen Dennis creates and government produces the venture underneath his total cope with CBS Studios.

Animation on the Amongst Us collection will come from Titmouse (Star Trek: Decrease Decks). With Dennis, the chief producers are Forest Willard, Marcus Bromander, and Carl Neisser of Innersloth. Plus, Chris Prynoski, Shannon Prynoski, Antonio Canobbio, and Ben Kalina of Titmouse.

There’s no broadcaster or streamer connected but however given the sport’s profile, we’d anticipate curiosity to be excessive!

Oh, and we are able to solely apologise for this (however we couldn’t resist!)
