The Among Us may very soon be removed from the list
It’s possible that the game Among Us could be one of the games to be removed from online stores to prevent any harm as they evaluate the possibility of switching from the Unity’s game engine. Unity.
Innovating the whole industry of gaming wasn’t the primary goal of Unity the company that’s self-titled gaming engine runs hundreds of games on video. News was released that Unity will charge developers per game installation. This applies regardless of whether users install it one time or, with the ever-growing dimensions of game files many times over.
That means the game developer has to pay in order to enable their game. The announcement shocked the market and seen many developers from Indie flood the internet with their displeasure and a few asking users to stop installing their games. As is the situation here, removing the game off sale until they can port their game into a brand new engine.
That’s what Innersloth creator of the hugely loved whodunnit “Among Us” game, Us debates. In an interview with IGN, Innersloth programmer Forest Willard confirmed that “pulling Among Us” could be a possibility as the company is looking for an option, including switching to a different game engine.
Willard made a comment on X also known officially as Twitter and said that “I bet Steam, Epic, Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft will love having waves of developers pulling their games”. However, if it is a path that is to be taken by the platform owners will certainly push Unity to reconsider the decision.
Further, Willard talked about the worry Unity ought to have regarding “how much trust that’s burning”. The change will not just be negative for developers, however, it also affects players who play the gaming. If games like these are delisted the players will be restricted to the games they are able to play and access.
Unity is currently beginning to reconsider its choice, saying that games that are part of charity bundles or on Game Pass will not see an additional fee. The move isn’t enough to prevent developers from moving away from Unity toward other engines including Unreal and Godot.
