The popularity of Fortnite has forced Epic Games to find new ways to surprise and impress their regular players. In that sense, last August a new mode called Imposters came to light, from which users did not take long to notice of its similarity to another trendy title: Among Us. Now, following complaints from Innersloth, the creators of the title hoaxes and betrayals, Fortnite recognizes the inspiration in Among Us for its Imposters mode. So has made known the GamesIndustry portal, which has explained the exact way in which Epic Games has given the credit that the video game revelation of 2020 deserved.
And it is that according to this source, Epic Games has explained that its new update for Fortnite includes “Improvements for Imposters, the game mode inspired by Among Us from Innersloth”. As it is, that is how the North American company seems to have settled the matter after the reactions aroused last August, with comments from those responsible for Among Us included. One of its developers, Gary Porter, had this to say about it: “I haven’t tweeted much lately because I’ve been working hard on future Among Us content, so it’s strange to see forced to do it again for things like this“, He said illustrating his words with a comparison of Imposters and Among Us.
Among Us will have a physical edition and several collectors
Now it only remains to know if with this public credit from Epic Games Innersloth will end the controversy or if, on the contrary, we are only facing the new episode of a series that has only just begun. Be that as it may, Imposters is now available in Fortnite, while Among Us is still planning its launch on Xbox for this year 2021, although it will arrive “later than expected.”
