Crossy Road Castle: 

 

The Among Us crew searches for suspicious characters throughout the colorful Crossy Road world in today’s free DLC update in a special collaboration with Innersloth. Go head-to-head with a collection of Among Us Crewmates (and possibly Imposters?), racing to complete each course as quickly as possible and rise to the top of the leaderboards.

 

Join the beloved Crossy Road crew on their next adventure! Climb through puzzling castle chambers on solo missions or with friends and family from anywhere with local and online cross-platform multiplayer. Veteran gamers and rookie adventurers alike can join the joyfully jumpy journey: Crossy Road Castle was built with every type of player in mind.


Begin the journey upwards as one of four iconic Crossy Road stars: Chicken, Mallard, Blue, or Unihorse. Collect coins, tokens, and gems on every run to unlock over 150 additional characters and silly hats to ascend in style. Hop into another run through the castle as green, red, yellow, or blue Crewmates!

 

“The adorably dubious Among Us Crewmates are a surprisingly good fit for the brightly-colored excitement of the Crossy Road universe,” said Katie Roots, Marketing Manager, at Hipster Whale. “The Innersloth team has been a delight to work with and we’re so excited to invite their iconic little guys into the castle!”
