Among Us Official Merchandise

Among Us’s official merchandise is currently on hold. Innersloth is an indie developer hence if you are looking for some realism then you might want to wait for the official merchandise.

You can also support the developer this way which will in turn benefit the game. Among Us has also released a statement on their official site where they say that orders have been currently put on hold and new merchandise is on the way. If you want to be one of the first people to hear about it, then you should sign up to their newsletter at this link.
