The online multiplayer social deduction game "Among Us" was released in 2018, but it was only in 2020 that it gained unprecedented attention and interest from the gaming community. The game is simple but requires players to develop strategies in order to win. A new "Among Us" class mod is now available, and it introduces a Sheriff in the game.
"Among Us" New Sheriff Class Mod
The Sheriff mod is a new modification for "Among Us" for Windows. It introduces a new crewmate class to the popular social deduction game. Unlike other classes introduced in other mods, the Sheriff is allowed to kill the impostor should they figure out his identity. However, they die if they shoot an innocent crewmate. The sheriff is given higher power than other crewmates and more responsibilities too.
In this "Among Us" class mod, the Sheriff's visibility could be set in the lobby game options menu. Players can enjoy this mod on the public servers of the game. Github offers a download link for this mod, and players interested to try this new mod could download the link. They might also want to check the steps on how to install the mod on PC.
How To Install the New Sheriff Mod in "Among Us"
Players can download the Sheriff Mod on their specific "Among Us" game version. It is worth noting that they would not be able to launch the game if the versions do not match. After that, they should make a copy of their game's root directory and rename it.
They should then extract the content of "Among Us" Sheriff Mod.zip into the copied folder they earlier created. Then, they should open the modded folder and open the game through Among Us.exe. The Sheriff mod should launch.
YouTuber AlexAcePlays shared a video of this new "Among Us" Sheriff mod. The content creator showed the gameplay from the perspective of the new character-the Sheriff. In the next round, the YouTuber played as an impostor, and fans can find the entire gameplay below.
For "Among Us" players wondering if they would get banned from playing the new Sheriff class mod, Github says that mod is made in a way that it does not send prohibited server requests. The site also claims that players could also join their own custom servers.
