The story behind Among Us is fascinating. It had been out for years and nobody really paid it any mind. Then around when COVID hit, it started getting some buzz and snowballed really rapidly

Iirc they were working on among us 2 then decided to scrap that and just add the planned features to the original game. Definitely the best choice for the situation
