Self-hosted Impostor servers on Ryzen 9 hardware for private lobbies, modded gameplay with TheOtherRoles, Town of Us, and Submerged, and community-run mafia nights. 1-click Impostor + Reactor install, plugin support, password-protected lobbies, and DDoS protection. Deploy a 15-slot Among Us server in under 60 seconds.
Self-hosting Among Us means running Impostor — the community-built open-source server that unlocks private lobbies, modded play, and cross-platform crewmates. We've wired up the whole stack so your group can jump into Polus in under 5 minutes.
Impostor (the open-source Among Us server, not to be confused with the game role) pre-installed and auto-updated. Latest stable branch with sane defaults — private lobby codes generated automatically, password toggle in the panel.
Among Us is light on CPU but punishing on latency — laggy hosts ruin meetings. Ryzen 9 7950X at 5.7 GHz boost plus DDR5-5200 keeps vote timers and kill animations synced for every crewmate, even cross-platform.
Reactor API pre-installed for client-side mod support. Run TheOtherRoles, Town of Us, LastImpostor, Submerged, or any Reactor-compatible mod — just sync the version with your players and connect. Plugin directory for server-side extensions.
Full crossplay between Steam / Epic / Itch PC clients and iOS / Android mobile clients. Share one lobby code, everyone connects regardless of device. Console Among Us isn't self-hostable (Xbox / Switch use official Innersloth servers only).
Optional password gating for lobbies from the control panel — perfect for stream nights, private league matches, or communities that want to keep public randos out. Lobby codes can be regenerated on demand.
Your server generates standard 6-letter lobby codes that players enter in the "Online" menu just like official Innersloth servers. We surface the "Set Custom Region" instructions so new players can connect without friction.
Layer 3/4/7 mitigation on every plan. Among Us's lightweight netcode doesn't get targeted often, but when a disgruntled impostor decides to booter the IP our filters absorb it at the edge — mafia night continues uninterrupted.
Datacenters in New York, LA, Dallas, London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Warsaw, Singapore, Tokyo, and Sydney. Pick the node closest to your friend group so the whole lobby has sub-50ms ping.
Live chat, Discord, and tickets — staffed by people who know what Impostor, Reactor, and "why is my TheOtherRoles version not matching" look like. No first-line script readers asking if you've tried reinstalling.
Four ways to launch your Among Us server — from fully managed cloud hosting to a hand-built modded community with TheOtherRoles assembled by our team.
Managed Among Us / Impostor cloud servers, instant deploy
Root-access VPS for custom Impostor setups
Bare-metal for large Among Us communities
We build, install, and launch your Among Us server for you
600+ Among Us / Impostor servers running on Fatality. Here's what keeps them here.
TheOtherRoles community server for 30 regulars — we rotate through lobbies on Friday nights. Impostor + Reactor pre-installed and the mod version matching was the easiest part of the setup. Haven't had a dropped lobby in 4 months.
Twitch streamer running Mafia nights with 15 viewers cycled in. Password-protected lobbies plus custom region setup means I can invite viewers without randos crashing the stream. Deployed in 90 seconds.
Friends group from 4 countries — official Innersloth servers had us at 200ms+ for half the group. Private Fatality-hosted Impostor server at London node cut everyone to under 60ms. Vote timing and kill sync is night and day.
The questions admins actually ask before spinning up a dedicated Among Us server.
Yes — via Impostor, an open-source community-built server that implements the Among Us protocol. You run Impostor, players add your server address as a "Custom Region" in the game's region settings, and you get private lobbies, modded play, and cross-platform crossplay. It's fully legal — Innersloth has tolerated community servers for years.
Impostor is the open-source Among Us server software maintained by the community. It replicates Innersloth's official matchmaking and in-game protocol, and exposes plugin hooks for modded gameplay (TheOtherRoles, Town of Us, Submerged, etc.) via the Reactor framework. Pre-installed on every plan.
Yes. Reactor is pre-installed so client-side mods like TheOtherRoles, Town of Us, Submerged, LastImpostor, and other Reactor-compatible mods work out of the box. The only requirement: all players in the lobby need the same mod version installed client-side — we surface a version matcher in the control panel.
Yes — Steam, Epic, Itch PC clients all connect, as do iOS and Android mobile clients. Console Among Us (Xbox / Switch / PlayStation) cannot connect to custom servers — Microsoft and the platforms restrict traffic to Innersloth's official matchmaking only.
In Among Us, go to the planet icon (region selector) on the main online menu, tap the wrench / edit icon, and add a custom region with your server's IP and port. Save, select that region, and the host can create a lobby like normal. We include a step-by-step guide for players in the control panel.
15 players per lobby — that's the Among Us game cap (10 for vanilla, 15 with Reactor / 15-player mod). You can run multiple concurrent lobbies on one server — our plans support 5-100+ concurrent lobbies depending on tier. The hardware isn't the bottleneck; the Among Us protocol itself is.
Yes — Impostor has a web admin panel for kicks, bans, lobby moderation, and plugin configuration. We expose it on a subdomain of your server with a pre-generated admin token. Plugin directory lets you drop in community admin tools (anti-AFK, vote moderation, etc.).
Among Us is extremely light — vanilla Impostor uses 200-400 MB per concurrent lobby. For a server running 5-10 concurrent lobbies, 1 GB is plenty. Modded lobbies with Reactor add maybe 50 MB each. You really don't need more than 2 GB unless you're running 50+ lobbies at once.
Yes — toggle password protection per-lobby or server-wide from the control panel. Useful for stream nights, private leagues, or community Mafia nights where you want to keep randoms out. Lobby codes can also be regenerated on demand to rotate access.
Yes — add additional servers to your account anytime, each with its own Impostor config, mod loadout, and region. Common setup: a main lobby + a dev/testing lobby for new mod versions. Regional servers (US East, EU, Asia) for globally distributed communities.
Start a private lobby for your friend group this afternoon, scale to a full TheOtherRoles community next weekend. Free migration on every paid plan — we'll move your Impostor config and plugins for you.
