Is Among Us on PS4?

Unfortunately, Among Us is not available on the PlayStation 4. According to the game's development team, the title comes with a number of limitations relating to voice comms and a bunch of technicalities. This makes it difficult for the game developers to implement a PS4 console port.

Another thing to note is that the game heavily relies on keypads and touch commands, which is not available on a PS4 gaming controller. Among Us is currently available on Android and iOS devices apart from the PC platform. However, the game is only available on PC via the Steam store.

However, it is also highly unlikely that the multiplayer game will make it to PlayStation, especially considering that the game has been around for more than two years and an upcoming sequel has been speculated to arrive sometime next year. With that said, the game's sequel may possibly arrive on the PS4 on launch.
