ASUS brings its ROG Bezel-Free kit to market
If memory serves me right then it was CES 2018 when ASUS announced a bezel kit for their monitors to expand towards a better surround-view experience. Basically you can take three displays and transform it into one. Two years later, it is available.
Well, it is finally available it seems, albeit it is unclear as to why and that took this long. The kit contains two clips to attach to the monitors. The material will redirect the light rays so that the screen edges become invisible. According to ASUS something that works best at an angle of 130 degrees.
If you opt this solution then 27" is the maximum display size you can use with a bezel no wider than 13mm in the US it is sold for $110 on Amazon.

Yes, thats exactly what they meant, $100 is expensive. There are people with billions of dollars, lots of things probably arent that expensive to them, however as a niche device with a simple application, yes that price is absurd to anyone with common sense
Expensive? What is it $100??

Buying 3 screens is cool, but spending another 100$ on that stuff when setting up your surround stuff with a kick ass gaming PC behind it (since I doubt you'd buy that thing for pro work) is a dealbreaker? Mkay, I guess I'd not see it as the big problem there with spending 3x150+ on the screens already, plus way way more on the rest of the PC.

It may be a niche application and a bit spendy but i like that it exists at all. Not that I need one.

Expensive is a rather relative term. For most of us, the $110 price tag for this is expensive. Obviously, for someone who can afford a $65,000 setup to play racing sims, that would be incredibly cheap.
Expensive? What is it $100?? That's not expensive for the intended application.. I have seen videos of guys running triple monitor setups using $10,000 wheel & pedal setups on $5000 racing seats on $50,000 4DOF motion rigs. Do you think $100 to remove the two bezels from that setup is expensive to them, compared to what it adds to the system??!

Too bad it's so expensive.
