Among Us 3D proves the best future for Quest games is non-VR crossplay

What you need to know

  • Among Us VR is becoming Among Us 3D, a cross-platform Steam game that no longer requires a VR headset.
  • The full Among Us 3D rebrand will take a “few months,” adding new Stardust currency, modes, tasks, and accessories. However, a demo will be available on Steam Next Fest from February 24 to March 3.
  • Among Us 3D won’t be compatible with the 2D version, though there will be “collabs” between the two.
  • Schell Games hasn’t said yet whether Among Us VR buyers will get the Steam version for free or not.

Among Us VR launched as one of our favorite multiplayer Quest games, but despite several major updates since 2022, it can be hard to keep a steady user base with so many Quest gamers spending their time in Horizon Worlds or new Gorilla Tag clones. So Schell Games is turning to non-VR Steam gamers with “Among Us 3D,” and it’s a sign that crossplay might be the best future for VR games.

Announced on Thursday, Among Us 3D is a new Steam PC port of the original Among Us VR game. Starting as a demo during Steam Next Fest from February 24–March 3, Among Us 3D will eventually let Steam gamers play as crewmates and imposters with VR gamers on Quest 3 and Quest 3S, PSVR 2, and Steam VR.
