About This Mod
Introduction
Among Us is a popular multiplayer social deduction game where players work together on a spaceship while trying to identify the Impostor among them. The game has a vibrant modding community that adds everything from new maps and game mechanics to proximity voice chat and cheat menus. The modification ecosystem is divided into two main categories: legitimate gameplay-enhancing mods and prohibited cheat tools. This guide covers the available modifications, installation methods, and important considerations for using them.
Legitimate Gameplay Mods
BetterCrewLink – Proximity Voice Chat
BetterCrewLink is an open-source modification that adds proximity-based voice chat to Among Us. This is one of the most popular and practical mods, allowing players to communicate over voice in-game without requiring third-party programs . The spatial audio feature ensures that you can only hear players who are close to your character, significantly enhancing the social deduction experience.
Key features include:
OBS browser source overlay
Walls that block audio
Volume sliders for individual players
Hearing through cameras
Noise suppression and echo cancellation
Support for custom colors and modded lobbies
The mod works on Windows, Linux (beta), and even mobile devices (beta) . Installation requires downloading the latest release and running the setup file. Antivirus warnings may appear because the program hooks into the Among Us process to read game data . The mod uses a dedicated voice server at bettercrewl.ink .
Submerged – Custom Underwater Map
Submerged is a mod that adds an entirely new map to Among Us, featuring multiple floors, elevators, over 25 custom tasks, and 4 new sabotages . The mod works on official servers and is regularly updated to support the latest Among Us versions.
The latest version, Submerged v2025.11.20, supports Among Us v17.1 and requires BepInEx v6.0.0-be.735 and Reactor v2.5.0 or later . The mod is available in multiple languages, including English, German, French, Russian, Japanese, and Chinese .
Installation involves downloading the correct ZIP release based on your Among Us version and extracting the files into the game directory. The BepInEx folder must be located in the same folder as the Among Us.exe file .
The mod supports Steam, Epic Games, itch.io, and Microsoft Store versions of Among Us. It does not support mobile or console versions .
Town of Us (Polus.GG)
Town of Us is a popular mod that adds numerous new roles to Among Us, transforming the game into a more complex social deduction experience. It is available as a 48.6 MB download and was last updated in early 2023 .
Prohibited Cheat Tools
MalumMenu – Cheat Menu with GUI
MalumMenu is an easy-to-use cheat menu with a simple graphical interface and many modules . The latest version, v3.2.0, supports Among Us v17.4 and v17.3 . The mod is available for Steam, Itch.io, Epic Games Store, and Xbox App versions.
Installation requires downloading the appropriate ZIP file for your game version and platform, then extracting all files directly into the Among Us game folder .
SickoMenu – Advanced Utility Menu
SickoMenu is a powerful cheat utility with features including: generating guest accounts, allowing no-clip while hosting, fake roles, no-clip, moving in vents, zoom out, seeing ghosts and chat, and a custom chat command system (/aum) . The menu uses default hotkeys: DELETE to show the menu, INSERT for radar, HOME for console, and END for replay .
SickoMenu supports Steam, Epic Games, and itch.io versions, but does not support the Microsoft Store version or mobile/console platforms . Installation involves either injecting the SickoMenu.dll with a reliable injector or placing the version.dll file in the Among Us directory .
Cheat Engine Tables
Several Cheat Engine tables are available for Among Us. A table by arSS offers Noclip, player role switching, ghost mode, and crewmate/impostor vision adjustment for game version v2021.4.1s and compatible 64-bit versions . A more recent table by SashaFloats (updated September 2025) includes no clip, teleportation, removing fog, a one-click script to reveal impostors, shapeshifters, and ghosts, and a vote manipulation feature that only works if you are the lobby host . The table is about 75-80% translated to Russian .
Cheat Engine table usage involves opening Cheat Engine, loading the table file, selecting the Among Us.exe process, and activating desired options by checking boxes .
Installation Overview
Creating a Modded Instance
For Steam users, the recommended approach is to create a separate modded instance of Among Us to avoid conflicts with the vanilla game. This involves duplicating the Among Us folder and adding the duplicate as a non-Steam game . This allows you to have a clean version for normal play and a modded version for custom content.
Dependency Requirements
Most mods require specific dependencies:
BepInEx – A Unity modding framework. Different versions are needed depending on your platform. Steam and Itch.io require the x86 version, while Epic and Microsoft Store require the x64 version .
Reactor – A modding API for Among Us that handles mod compatibility .
Downgrading Game Version
If a mod has not yet been updated to support the latest Among Us version, you can downgrade your game through Steam by selecting the "public-previous" beta branch in the game's properties .
Risks and Considerations
Account Bans
While some mods like Submerged work on official servers, cheat tools like SickoMenu and Cheat Engine tables are prohibited and carry a significant risk of account bans. The SickoMenu disclaimer explicitly states: "If you get banned from playing entirely or from a lobby, I am not responsible" and that the project is intended for educational use only .
Antivirus Warnings
Many mods and cheat tools trigger antivirus warnings because they hook into the Among Us process to read or modify game data. This is typically a false positive for legitimate mods, but it is a legitimate concern for cheat tools .
Platform Limitations
Most mods are only available for desktop versions of Among Us (Steam, Epic, Itch.io). Mobile and console versions are not supported .
