‘Among Us’ game hits half a billion users in November

New Delhi: The mystery-party-action game ‘Among Us’ which is very popular among the kids in India saw a surge in popularity during Covid-19 lockdowns, with roughly half a billion people playing it in November.

According to market research firm SuperData, ‘Among Us’ is now the most popular game ever when it comes to monthly players.

Since ‘Among Us’ is not heavily monetised, earnings figures are comparatively smaller.

“The PC version (which has a $5 upfront price) accounted for the majority of revenue from August to November (64 per cent) despite having only 3 per cent of the total 500 million players were playing the PC version,” the report said.
