It has been a few weeks since InnerSloth had announced a new map for Among Us, but no release date has been specified by the devs as of yet. However, fans may have something to look forward to once again, as the first looks on the upcoming map have been teased on the official Among Us blog by their new community director, Victoria.
Alongside teasing the new map, the devs have also shared their upcoming plans on the future murder-mystery title. The blog post also included some bug fixes and balance changes that have recently been shipped to the game.
Among Us Patch Notes For December 2020
New Map
As mentioned earlier by InnerSloth, the new map is set to be a Henry Stickmin themed map that can potentially be even “bigger than Polus.” For the unaware, Henry Stickmin is another insanely popular choose-your-own-adventure video game title published by InnerSloth.
Only a single portion of the map has been teased in the dev blog. It has also been tweeted out by the newly-created official Among Us twitter handle.
Changes and Bug fixes
The blog also talked about some recent changes made to the game in the last update. The changes consist of bug fixes and balance updates.
Balance changes

Bug fixes
Fixed camera flinging on security cams

Mobile Ad Removal
InnerSloth has confirmed that they plan to temporarily remove ads for Among Us mobile in the next update. However, the ads are expected to return in 2021.
“There have been a lot of issues with inappropriate ads on mobile, so until 2021, they’ll be removed,” the devs said. “Everyone who paid to remove ads, don’t worry. We’re gonna re-add them and make sure you get something extra for paying. “
