Play as a Detective to solve murders, or as Viper to eliminate your crewmates<\/h2>\n

Good news for Among Us fans, as the game has received fresh updates with new roles to keep the experience exciting. The latest patch introduces\u00a0Detective<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Viper<\/strong>, giving you new ways to enjoy the game.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Detective<\/strong>\u00a0is a\u00a0Crewmate role<\/strong>, and the first one to have two unique abilities. You can\u00a0track a dead crewmate\u2019s location<\/strong>,\u00a0review a suspect list,<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0identify the Imposter\u00a0<\/strong>you\u2019re hunting down. To balance things, you can only investigate one active case at a time, though settings let you adjust how many interrogations are available.<\/p>\n

On the imposter side,\u00a0Viper<\/strong>\u00a0lets you\u00a0dissolve victims<\/strong>\u00a0using acid. You can do\u00a0Sabotage<\/strong>\u00a0to\u00a0distract the crew\u00a0<\/strong>while you unleash this power. The kill comes with a special animation, where the body decays in three stages, and you can fine-tune the speed in advanced role settings.<\/p>\n

Quality of life updates coming with Patch v17.0.0<\/h2>\n

And beyond these two new exciting roles, the game has also introduced some quality-of-life updates:<\/p>\n
