What Does AFK Stand For in Among Us?

Ever wondered what ‘AFK’ means while playing Among Us or chatting online? Let’s clear that up!

‘AFK’ is a term you might see pop up while playing Among Us or during an online chat. But what exactly does it mean?

AFK: Away From Keyboard

AFK stands for ‘Away From Keyboard.’ It means someone is not at their computer or device right now. Players usually say this when they can’t play or respond immediately.

This term is super handy in Among Us. When a player says they’re ‘AFK,’ it means they might not be moving around or participating in tasks for a bit because they’re stepped away.

Why Go AFK in Among Us?

There are lots of reasons someone might go AFK in Among Us. Maybe they need a quick snack, the doorbell rang, or they just need a bathroom break. It’s a polite way to let other players know they’re not ignoring the game on purpose.

Remember, Among Us is all about teamwork (and figuring out who the impostors are!). So, if a crewmate goes AFK, it might make tasks a bit trickier. But it’s all part of the fun and surprises in the game.
