Among Us
How to set up a private Among Us server with Impostor
Among Us private servers are usually run with Impostor, an open-source server that lets you create your own lobbies and sometimes add custom rules or mods.
Set up
- Order an Among Us server on our Discord and tell us you want Impostor.
- We install Impostor and open its default game port (UDP 22023).
- Edit Impostor's config file if you want to change the server name or limits.
How players join
- On PC, players add a custom region in the game with your server IP and port, using the Impostor region tool or a regions file.
- Mobile and console players need extra steps or a modded client, and that depends on the game version.
Region and encryption settings change with some Among Us updates, so ask us on Discord for the current steps for your game version.
Common errors
- "Version mismatch" or can't connect after an update: update Impostor and the game so both match.
- Players can't find the server: check the region IP and port in their region file.
- Connection dropping: make sure UDP port 22023 is open and the server is running.
