Among Us

The Among Us characters are a colorful bunch of spacemen, but how many are there? And is there any difference between them?

Among Us is an addictive online multiplayer game that allows players to work together to solve problems and flush out an imposter hiding within their ranks. Each character in the game is a little colorful spaceman and players will need to work as a team to work out which one of them is secretly (or overtly) trying to sabotage them and their spaceship.

As the game is designed to be played by multiple people at once, each of the Among Us characters is assigned a different color to tell them apart from the rest. Here’s every character you can choose in Among Us and if there’s any differences between each of them.


Among Us Characters
There are 12 different characters in Among Us.

Apart from color, there’s no difference between the Among Us crew.

Is there any difference between Among Us characters?

No. In truth, every Among Us character is the same, the only difference between them is the color they correspond to. None of them have any unique skills or abilities because of their color.

Therefore, when picking your avatar, simply pick the color you like most and don’t worry about any individual differences between them – beyond aesthetics of course.


So that’s all you need to know about the differences between Among Us characters.
