Among Us Has Two New Roles Planned for 2026, Plus a September Addition
Innersloth also outlined a Match Info Guide, new Cosmicubes, more collaborations, and progress on Among Us Story: On Guard.
Innersloth has shared the second half of its Among Us 2026 roadmap, with two new roles, a new lobby information tool, more Cosmicubes, additional collaborations, and an update on Among Us Story: On Guard.
One of the two planned roles is scheduled to arrive in September 2026. Innersloth did not reveal what either role does yet, but the team said it has been testing them to keep the new additions from overpowering existing roles. The goal is to offer different play styles without turning every lobby into total bean-shaped chaos.
The developers also plan to add the Match Info Guide alongside the September role. The tool will help players keep track of a lobby’s settings, including the number of roles in play and their assigned percentages. That should make it easier to remember how a match is configured, especially as more roles join the game.
More Cosmicubes and collaborations are planned
New Cosmicubes are also in development. Innersloth teased more cosmetic themes for players who want their Crewmate to look sharp in the Dropship, though the roadmap did not confirm release dates, prices, or the contents of the upcoming collections.
The studio mentioned that players have already asked for a second Indie Cosmicube and an Ace Attorney collaboration. Those ideas are not confirmed, but Innersloth said it wants to hear which franchises the community would like to see next.
More collaborations are planned for the rest of the year as well. Innersloth said its 2026 lineup began with new and returning crossover projects, and the team is not finished adding them yet.
Among Us Story: On Guard is still in development
Innersloth also addressed Among Us Story: On Guard, the narrative game revealed earlier this year. The team said it has seen fan art and player requests for the game to launch, but development is still underway. The project is being prepared around MIRA HQ and will have players work to prove their innocence while finding the real Impostor.
The first half of Innersloth’s year included the release of the Among Us Show and the reveal of Among Us Story: On Guard. The second half now has a clearer lineup, although most of the roadmap remains without firm release dates.
