When Epic had released the Imposter Limited Time Mode to Fortnite, it looked like they had copied the game Among Us as the aim of the game is to catch the imposters or complete the tasks in-game before the imposters eliminate players.
Epic did acknowledge that the mode was inspired by the viral game at the time in October and now new cosmetics have been leaked to show there is a collaboration between Fortnite and Among Us.

There were no hard feelings with Fortnite and Among Us when the game mode was released as Fortnite had tweeted some fixes to the mode, and acknowledging Among Us in the tweet. This led to a conversation between the two where Fortnite said, “Big fans! We never got to talk about how you inspired us. What do you think about working on something fun together sometime?”
To which Among Us replied, “yesssss have ur Agents contact our Crewmates.”
