Is Among Us cross-platform?

By Jacob Roach and Lloyd Coombes Updated October 22, 2025

One of the most viral gaming hits in the last few years, Among Us remains instantly recognizable with its colorful characters and the way they can often meet their untimely ends. Arguably the best social deduction game to capture the mainstream, it’s multiplayer-only whether you’re playing on mobile, PC, or console.

Still, if you want a fully-stocked spaceship, you’ll want to know if Among Us is a cross-platform game. You’ll find the answer below, as well as frequently-asked questions about things like cross-progression.

Yes, Among Us is cross-platform. You can team up with your friends without any additional steps across PlayStation, Xbox, PC, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android.

On PC, it doesn’t matter where you got the game from. Itch.io, Epic Games Store, and Steam all sell the game, but it all works the same.

Inviting your friend in Among Us is simple. From the menu, select Online play, then Create game under the Host banner. Select one of the three maps, the number of imposters — we recommend two for a 10-player game — and the chat language, then press Confirm. Once you’re in the lobby, you’ll see a six-digit code under the Start button. Your friends will need that.

Once your friend has the code, they can enter your lobby by selecting Online play from the menu, then entering the code under the Private banner.

Your friends will need to be on the same server as you, which you can change in the bottom right corner of the Online play screen. No matter if you’re on PC, Switch, iOS, or Android, the process is the same.

You don’t need to worry about cross-save in Among Us (there’s no progression, so you can easily start from scratch regardless of your platform). There are, however, cosmetic items in the game that you can purchase. You can’t transfer these between platforms. The same is true for any other purchases.

The mobile versions, for example, have an ad-free option. If you have an Android and iOS device, you can’t transfer that purchase between them. Similarly, purchasing the game on Steam, the Epic Games Store, or Itch.io doesn’t entitle you to the ad-free version on mobile.

The only exception is two devices that use the same storefront. So, you can transfer your ad-free purchase between two Android devices or between an iPhone and iPad, for example.

If you have a hankering for more cross-platform action, there’s a whole host of games you can choose from, including Apex Legends, Borderlands 4 and Stardew Valley.
