Polus is the biggest map in Among Us, and it is based on an arctic base.

Being the third map in the game, Polus was introduced to the game on 12 November 2019. Among Us has burst out globally as one of the most fun games to play with friends. The presence of multiple maps in Among Us allows players to not only to choose from different surroundings, but also forces strategy changes.

With multiple new tasks and an unqiue security system, Polus is the first map in Among Us which does not have a Cafeteria. Polus is also the first map in the game to provide a custom eject animation with a specific reference to the Terminator 2 movie.

Let's take a look at everything that one needs to know about the Polus Map in Among Us.

Apart from these, players also need to remember that much like The Skeld map, Polus also has security cameras which can be accessed from Admin. Impostors need to be extra careful about not getting caught on these cameras while committing a crime or during the act of venting.
