Hit indie game Among Us was recently uploaded to Sony’s servers with the release date of Aug. 31, 2021.
Normally a listing like this would be as close to a confirmation as you can get without being one but making it the last day of the month usually suggests a placeholder date. That being said, Aug. 31, 2021 might be the last day, it is also a Tuesday, so it very well can be true.
