Host of The Game Awards, Geoff Keighley, has announced that a new map for Among Us will be revealed at the 2020 awards show. The map, which was teased on Twitter by developer InnerSloth earlier this year, is centered around a completely new location for the game and will feature some unique areas and tasks.
While not much is known about the map aside from a screenshot showing the deck of a spaceship, InnerSloth has revealed the new map will be influenced by the developer’s previous game The Henry Stickmin Collection. In past events, The Game Awards has revealed games with trailers and gameplay segments so it’s possible that the new map will be revealed with a quick game involving streamers and other celebrities.
Among Us is up for two awards at The Game Awards this year including Best Mobile Game competing against Call of Duty Mobile, Genshin Impact, Legends of Runeterra, and Pokemon Cafe Mix. While the game is out for Mobile devices, Among Us has had an incredibly strong presence on PC, with Twitch streamers sharing their sessions of the game with viewers making Among Us incredibly popular on the platform.
Among Us is also up for Best Multiplayer Game at The Game Awards where it faces some stiff competition. Among the candidates for the award are Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Call of Duty: Warzone, Fall Guys, and Valorant. With the current situation keeping many gamers at home, online multiplayer has seen a significant boost for games like Sea of Thieves and Rocket League reaching peak player numbers in 2020.
The Game Awards is going to have a different feel this year, as the event is going all-digital to keep everything safe. While this means there will be no fan presence, viewers can still expect a wealth of guest appearances such as Uncharted and Spider-Man star Tom Holland and a performance by legendary Pearl Jam frontman, Eddie Vedder.
One aspect that will not be changing at The Game Awards are the surprise announcements that have become a tradition at the show. The Game Awards has been host to a number of reveals in the past such as the reveal of the look and name of the Xbox Series X and the reveal of Joker from Persona 5 as a DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Among Us will be at The Game Awards when it airs on December 10th at 7:00 pm EST.
