Get ready to step into the whimsical world of Taskmaster like never before! The beloved comedy panel show is set to launch its own virtual reality game in 2024, thanks to a collaboration with Scallywag Arcade. Exclusively available for Meta Quest 2 and 3 (sorry, Quest 1 users), Taskmaster VR promises a laugh-out-loud experience with physics-based mayhem and comical challenges.
Niall Taylor, Head of Games at Scallywag Arcade, expressed the excitement, stating, “The world of Taskmaster is perfect for VR. Combining the hilarity of the show with the freedom of virtual reality gives players an immersive (and slightly mad) experience.”
Hosts Greg Davies and ‘Little’ Alex Horne have lent their voices and likenesses to ensure an authentic Taskmaster adventure for fans. Unlike the TV show’s competitive format, Taskmaster VR is a solo journey. Players can tackle amusing challenges like watermelon smashing and crafting a delightful sandwich inside the Taskmaster’s house.
The cherry on top? A chance to win a virtual version of Greg’s iconic golden head trophy awaits those skilled enough to be crowned the Taskmaster champion in the virtual realm. This promises to be a unique and entertaining extension of the Taskmaster universe, delivering laughter and virtual glory to players worldwide. So, gear up for a surreal adventure that brings Taskmaster’s hilarity into the immersive realm of virtual reality!
