Rumor: Among Us Might Release on PlayStation 4/5 in August

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.

For more information on Among Us, you can find the official overview below:

Play with 4-15 player online or via local WiFi as you attempt to prepare your spaceship for departure, but beware as one or more random players among the Crew are Impostors bent on killing everyone!
