Updating: It has been restored. Oh well.
Among us may have come out first on PC, but Switch players can play the upcoming airship level before it’s released – and before anyone else – as long as they don’t mind exploiting a glitch in the system.
As seen in the GameXplain video above, cheaters and innocent alike can play the unfinished level, which will be released in early 2021, by hosting a local game. IGN outlined the steps to be taken:
– Press ‘Local’ in the main menu and create your own game
– Select the ‘Airship’ card via the laptop
– Exit the lobby, click “Online” and host a room without choosing a card
– You can then load into the airship map as soon as four players sign up
It’s worth noting that this map is unfinished so it’s probably hard to play without bugs and missing pieces. Still, you can poke around and get to know the layout before your friends get their grubby mitts on it. Just don’t be surprised if they kick you out the plane door for cheating.
… if you’re not averse to cheating a little, here is the map for the new level:
