Among Us VR Announces Open Beta
Among Us VR is inching ever closer to its release on Steam and Oculus later this year. Developer Schell Games (who take over for InnerSloth thanks to their VR expertise) have just announced that they're finally ready to bring in more beans to help test Among Us VR prior to its release.
