Is Among Us on Xbox One?

Among Us is not available on Xbox One gaming consoles. While this is clearly bad news for the Xbox fans, the developers behind the game have explained that there are certain limitations relating to voice comms and other technicalities that are preventing them from implementing a console port at the moment. Among Us can be easily played on smartphones and PCs using keypads and touch commands, which is a bit difficult on Xbox controllers.

The game is currently available only on mobile devices (Android and iOS) and PC via the Steam store. It is also available through the Epic Games store.
