Is Among Us cross platform?
Among Us is a fully cross-platformed game.

Servers are geographically chosen meaning players from North America cannot play with those from Asia or Europe.
How to play cross platform
To launch a cross-platform game, you will have to make a session with your friends.
Here’s a “How to” guide on creating the session and inviting friends.
1. Log on
Launch Among US and log on to your online account if you have one.
2. Check server
In the bottom right-hand corner of your screen, there will be an icon that will let you know what region you are in.
Double-check this is correct before continuing.
3. Create game
Click on the “Create Game” button which will be just under the host section.
4. Finish off the cross-platform
Select which map, how many imposters and how many people will be playing.
5. Invite friends
Once you launch the session, you will be alone in a game lobby.
A six-letter code will show up on the bottom of the screen.
Share that with friends so they can join your lobby.
6. Everyone join
Your friends must select the “Enter Code” option on the main screen, input the code and they’ll be ready to join you in your imposter hunt.
