Penn & Teller VR: F U, U, U, & U (Frankly Unfair, Unkind, Unnecessary & Underhanded) is a new game for virtual reality headsets from Gearbox Software that stars a well-known comedy and magic duo. The VR game for Quest, Rift, Vive and soon, PSVR, walks players through 10 "cruel magic tricks" that promise plenty of laughs and have the potential to work through one's fears. According to Gearbox Software, the game provides plenty of opportunities to simultaneously "baffle and humiliate your friends."
Although the immersive nature of virtual reality environments leave people particularly vulnerable to being scared with frightening visuals, Penn Jillette reminds that the only fear to overcome is the one of "wasting money on a frivolous collection of VR games."
