- The Airship
The Airship, often shortened as Airship, is the fourth map for Among Us, based on the Toppat Clan's Airship in the Henry Stickmin game Infiltrating the Airship. The Airship is the largest map in Among Us,[1] includes more tasks, and has seventeen new locations. Added with the new map were multiple Henry Stickmin-related cosmetics and The Airship skin bundle.
Premise
Welcome recruits. Hop onto the newest Among Us map – the Airship! Out now on all the Among Us platforms, this giant ship is where you’ll be able to work together to carry out the greatest plan... whether that’s as a Crewmate or Impostor is another question.
This free update includes:
- The 4th map, and the biggest one yet
- New tasks including jewel polishing, emptying trash, and more
- The ability to pick the room you start in
- All new areas to explore (or get murdered in)
- Improved mobility with ladders and moving platforms
- Inspired by The Henry Stickmin Collection
Development and Release
|
The Airship is a new, free, 4th map for Among Us, coming out in early 2021! All new tasks, skins, and more to keep you working ... and guessing. | ||
| —Description of The Airship announcement trailer on YouTube | ||
The first teaser of the new map revealed in the first post of the Among Us Twitter account, showing Cockpit.
The development of The Airship was officially confirmed by Innersloth on September 23, 2020, as some of the new content that will be added to Among Us after the cancellation of its sequel, Among Us 2.[2] Innersloth, on their developer log, stated that it will be free to all players.[3] On November 18, 2020, Cockpit was revealed in the first post of Among Us's official {{Iw|wp|Twitter]] account with an unknown name.[4] Two characters are featured, who resemble a Center for Chaos Containment employee and the Right Hand Man Reborn, respectively.
In an interview with Innersloth, when asked if he made any plans for the new map, Marcus Bromander responded "Ah, yeah! I've got four rooms drawn and I've got the layout [of the map] kind of sketched out."[5] At The Game Awards 2020 on December 10, 2020, The Airship's announcement trailer was shown. This announcement was officially confirmed by Geoff Keighley on his Twitter account on December 2, 2020.[6] It reveals the names of several locations, including Cockpit, Viewing Deck, Medical, Gap Room, Meeting Room, Lounge, Armory, and Showers, and shows new tasks.[7]
On March 18, 2021, Innersloth announced The Airship was set to release on the 31st of the month.[8]
On March 31, 2021, Innersloth announced that The Airship was set to release at 6:00 PM UTC on that day.
The map was released on the same day (March 31, 2021) with another tweet from the official Twitter account stating the map was now released, free for all devices.

Trivia
- Before releasing, The Airship's map icon was shown as a single question mark. It was revealed in a video about the new Among Us interface, as a fourth map had a question mark as a placeholder for the map icon.
- The Airship has the longest name of any Among Us map, having 11 characters, including the space. The Skeld's name only has nine characters, including the space; MIRA HQ's name only has seven characters, including the space; and Polus's name only has five.
- On December 11, 2020, Marcus Bromander stated on his Twitter account that he posted the trailer's official theme for download on Newgrounds.[9]
- The Airship has several modifications in comparison with the previous maps:
- MedBay has been replaced with Medical on The Airship, similar to how Greenhouse replaces O2 on MIRA HQ.
- However, the Submit Scan task is not present.
- The same case also appears when Cockpit replaces Navigation, and when Cargo Bay replaces Storage.
- There are multiple new tasks and a new kill animation introduced within The Airship's reveal trailer. The kill animation is the cyborg laser beam, based on the Right Hand Man's laser.
- The "Dead Body Reported" sound is different on The Airship than the other three maps.
- The sound can also be heard in the Henry Stickmin game Infiltrating the Airship.
- The sound also is embedded into the emergency meeting sound, when a player calls an emergency meeting using the emergency button.
- In the trailer, a new Sabotage sound was also heard (also found in Infiltrating the Airship) but it was changed to the default Sabotage sound after the map's release.
- In this map, players are able to choose the location to spawn in after an emergency meeting.
- The Airship contains new mechanics, including ladders and the moving platform.
- MedBay has been replaced with Medical on The Airship, similar to how Greenhouse replaces O2 on MIRA HQ.
- In the reveal trailer, the voice narrating belongs to Marcus Bromander, playing his role as Reginald Copperbottom, yet another character hailing from the Henry Stickmin series. Reginald himself is the leader of the Toppat Clan in the games, making sense to his authority-like demeanor in the trailer.
- The only returning locations on The Airship are Communications, Electrical, Security, and Outside.
- The Airship is the only map without Chart Course, Start Reactor, Clear Asteroids, Unlock Manifolds, and Submit Scan.
- This is the only map not to have visual tasks.
- This is the only map that has fake Fix Wiring panels.
- When creating a game online, The Airship used The Skeld's background when choosing a map. This was later fixed in v 2021.4.12.[10]
- In the Quick Chat interface in a lobby, The Airship is not present as one of the locations.
- This is the first and only map to stylistically use a different icon for Freeplay as it does not have a simplified (blocky) icon, but instead, the title for the one seen in Infiltrating The Airship, excluding the word "Infiltrating" and the cloudy puff behind the title logo. The Airship is not modified to look simplistic (also in front of a big cloud).
- The team tweeted a concept art for The Airship map on Among Us official Twitter account on April 15, 2021.[11]
