Critical Role gives Among Us players new ways to answer the question “how do you wanna do this?” with new outfits, and even a new way to kill.

Critical Role and Among Us are two powerhouses when it comes to having “surprisingly extensive communities” and now they’ll come crashing together in a crossover, live now in Among Us. That’s right, now when you get murdered while you’re just trying to swipe your ID card for the 7th time, it’ll be by someone dressed up as Jester from Campaign 2 or Vax from Campaign 1 or many other combinations of characters.

Will it take the sting of humiliation, knowing that you’ve voted once again to eject an innocent crewmember out of the airlock to know that, when you’re cornered in the electrical room, your killer will also be a Critter? Perhaps!

Either way you can find out for yourself in the latest patch. And you have until November 11th to do so.

Critical Role Plays Critical Role Among Among Us New patch

In the new TPK update, developer Innersloth introduced the Critical Role cosmetics:

Roleplayers rejoice! Adventure awaits as you try to perceive the Impostor, roll high on your task checks, and hopefully avoid that TPK in update v2024.8.13. Will donning the threads of members from Vox Machina, Mighty Nein, or Bells Hells save you from an untimely death at the hand of the Impostor? Well… you may certainly try. 

Getting to work alongside the wonderful crew of the hit TTRPG show Critical Role to bring some of their magic to Among Us for Gilmore’s Curious Cosmicube has been mind blowing. Be sure to go to our in-game store and spend some Stars before the Cosmicube is gone on November 12th, 2024 at 7am UTC / 2am ET! For those in the Pacific time zone the Cosmicube will be gone on November 11th, at 11pm.  

Poor Mollymauk just can’t catch a break, even in Space.

You can find several new outfits in the Cosmicube, including:

  • Artagan’s Cloak Skin 
  • Artagan’s Hair Hat

You can find a variety of Critical Role fan favorites from across the various campaigns. So look forward to hearing some screams in a Discord near you.
