How Many People Play Among Us?
Among Us' player base is split between those playing on PC and those playing on mobile. According to a developer at the studio behind Among Us, InnerSloth, the game hit 3.8 million concurrent players the weekend of Sept. 26. That was good for more than 100 million downloads and 60 million active players.
Since then, Among Us appears to have continued to grow. Data about mobile users — which make up the majority of Among Us players — isn't readily accessible. SteamCharts, a third-party app that monitors Steam player counts, recorded 195,879 players in-game on average over the last 30 days. The peak player count of the last 30 days, meanwhile, was 438,524. Based on InnerSloth's numbers from the end of September, that's likely a fraction of the total player count.
So how many people play Among Us? Likely around 4 million people.
