It’s hard to overstate the popularity of Among Us. The social deduction game casts players as a spaceship crew tasked with a series of menial chores to complete, and with identifying and casting out the Impostors hiding amongst their ranks and picking them off one by one.

This glitch basically lets dedicated Among Us fans peek at their Christmas present early, and as unfortunate as that is from a developer standpoint, hopefully the fans are getting a lot of enjoyment out of it.
