Joe Sugg is to launch a new virtual reality game show online.
The YouTuber and Strictly Come Dancing star is teaming up with Stellify Media, makers of Who Wants to Be A Millionaire?, to produce the series.
Titled Virtually Impossible, Joe Sugg will launch the game show on his YouTube channel as he hosts 12 contestants through a childlike assault course as quickly as possible.
A teaser shares: “All very straightforward except for one catch – all the contestants are in VR and this simple course now becomes their worst nightmare. From monsters in mazes to terrifying zip wires Joe serves up simple tasks that become Virtually Impossible.”
The series will drop from Sunday, 24 September 2023.

It’s amazing to be working with Sony Pictures Television and Stellify Media and finally seeing it all come to fruition.
