The online social deduction game "Among Us" is getting a new set of crewmates based on the cryptic post Innersloth tweeted earlier this week. "a new Crewmate collab is coming on board to help out with tasks soon," the tweet read.

Along with the tweet is a cryptic image showing ten silhouettes of "Among Us" beans in unique clothes. While Innersloth has not confirmed anything yet about the collaboration, fans who put on their detective hats, immediately figured out the silhouettes have something to do with VTubers, suggesting that the collaboration is with Hololive.

One Twitter user filled in the cryptic image, which appears very accurate with the silhouettes. VTubers supposedly teased in the tweet include Gawr Gura (bottom left), Watson Amelia (middle left), Shirakami Fubuki (top right), Usada Pekora (second from bottom right), Inugami Korone (second from top right), Moona Hoshinova( top left) and Ookami Mio (second from top left).

Another tweet seemingly confirmed the speculations about this upcoming "Among Us" Hololive collaboration, this time from a Japanese tech company and Hololive owner Cover Corporation. "Let's accomplish the win conditions with space as the theater! Coming soon...Please wait for the information reveal on Wednesday, September 21," the tweet roughly translated to English with a picture of an "Among Us" bean read.

Interestingly, the official Twitter account of "Among Us" commented on the tweet with the word, "excited." Fans will definitely learn more about this collaboration on Wednesday. Vtuber group Hololive is the all-female talent group that belongs to the VTuber agency.
