UK-based studio nDreams, the minds behind The Assembly (2016) and producer of Bloody Zombies (2017), and Near Light today announced that its upcoming tongue-in-cheek shooting game Shooty Fruity is slated to simultaneously launch on PlayStation VR, HTC Vive and Oculus Rift on December 19th, 2017.

Shooty Fruity basically turns you into a multi-tasking deranged grocery store clerk as it challenges you to keep your job of scanning, packing, serving fruits all while shooting the hell out of slightly more intelligent (and frightening) mutant fruits. Shooty Fruity gives you plenty of customizable weapons including C4 launchers, flak cannon-style shotguns and more.

From the trailer, it looks like there’s some definite influence from Job Simulator (2016), with its silly job training pretext and deadpan voice overs. We haven’t had a chance to dive into the fruit-shooting Shooty Fruity (say that 10 times fast), but we’ll be bringing you the review on launch day, so check back then.

Anyone who pre-orders the game, or buys it over the holiday season, will get free exclusive content, including the “explody bear” grenade and the “Golden Guns” skin pack.

The game will be priced at €20/$20/£16. Preorders are available on PSN and Steam.
