Genshin Impact just hit fans with a surprise announcement: a collaboration with Among Us! At first glance, the two games couldn’t be more different, and the crossover might seem completely random. But surprisingly, it kind of works!
“Paimon is Sus”
The official Among Us Twitter dropped the announcement just an hour ago, leaving no room for mystery. For non-Genshin players, the shadowy teaser might have been confusing, but anyone even slightly familiar with the game quickly recognized Paimon. To make it crystal clear, Genshin’s own Twitter account chimed in with a Paimon reaction of their own.
Miliastra Wonderland’s First Collab?
While the details of the crossover are still under wraps, it’s likely tied to Genshin’s upcoming UGC feature, Miliastra Wonderland. Put simply, it’s a massive creative playground where players can design their own worlds and share them with friends. The reveal trailer has already set the community buzzing, showcasing everything from tower defense to third-person shooter modes.
So how does Among Us fit into Genshin’s fantasy world? That’s where Miliastra Wonderland comes in. This new game mode flips the usual Genshin formula on its head, breaking many of the old rules. Chances are, that’s precisely where the collab will land. After all, if Miliastra can pull off a full-on MOBA inside Genshin, slipping in an Among Us crossover doesn’t seem far-fetched at all.
For now, the details remain a mystery, and there’s no guarantee this is even tied to Miliastra Wonderland. It could just as easily be a straightforward collab where Among Us players get a Paimon skin, rather than full Among Us gameplay inside Genshin’s new mode. Or who knows, maybe we’ll get both!
At the end of Genshin’s latest Version Special Program, the team revealed that Miliastra Wonderland will open its beta alongside the upcoming ‘Luna II’ update. Following the naming pattern set with Nod-Krai, this likely puts the launch window in late October. If that timeline holds, we can probably expect more details about the collab to drop around then.
One thing’s for sure: players did not see this collab coming, and the community is buzzing with excitement. It’s a smart marketing move, too.
It builds hype for Genshin as Nod-Krai gears up for release while keeping all eyes on Miliastra Wonderland’s launch!
