A new option in Among Us will now make it easier to swiftly talk to your fellow friends (or those damn sus)!
The developers released a Version 2021.2.21 update, which adds a special “Quickchat” function into the game. In the Nintendo Switch version, players will be able to access this function by simply holding the “R” button and moving their analog stick around a menu wheel.

While not a perfect substitute for actual voice chat, this new feature definitely looks handy for Nintendo Switch players who don’t want to deal with a clunky keyboard to speak up in the game. Hopefully it levels the playing field a little!
