Trivia

  • There is a bug in the Nintendo Switch edition that causes the online search filters for games to reset whenever the game is opened.
  • Before advanced controller and touch controls were added, a cursor was put in place to be used for most tasks. It was moved using the gyroscope or the left analog stick. It was later scrapped, but it can still be found in the game's files. It can be found during natural gameplay in a variety of ways.
    • While in the lobby, press R to open the chat UI, press Plus to open the settings menu, then press R again to close the chat UI. If performed correctly, the cursor will appear. It is between the UI and the text, and it can be controlled via gyroscope controls or by moving the left analog stick.
    • When an Impostor kills a Crewmate, the cursor appears during the start of the kill animation for one frame. It only appears if the player is on Nintendo Switch.
    • After a meeting, due to an unknown trigger, the cursor can sometimes appear.
    • The cursor can appear through a variety of other methods that are not fully understood.
