A new Worms game is in development for release in 2020, publisher and developer Team17 teased. “Get ready for Worms like you’ve never played before!” Team17 said in a tweet. “Things are getting real in 2020—more details coming soon…” Watch a teaser trailer below.
Dave writes: "Being a bit of an old-timer, I remember the launch of Worms. As an owner of an Atari ST, I’d read all of the Amiga magazines simply because games would hit the Amiga first, and our team would get them in due course. There’d be a tinge of envy as I’d make a wishlist of the games to get when they arrived on the ST, and I remember Worms being one of them."
"Team 17 and Evercade are today very proud and excited to announce that the "Worms Collection 1” pack (which includes "Worms", "Worms Armageddon", and "Worms Blast") is coming to the Evercade console in May 2021" - Jonas Ek, TGG.
It looks great although it does have one fundamental flaw - the Evercade is a single player machine and the Worms games are best played in multiplayer.
Having said that, I guess as players tend it in turns you'd just pass the machine around each player
Some Video Game franchises have weapons that are imaginative, unconventional and downright bizarre. This is a good thing. Join us as we investigate nine of the best.
I'm surprised Ratchet & Clank wasn't on the list. Late Saint's Row games, with more imaginative weapons like the Shark gun and the armchair with guns would fit on a part two list as well
I'm not familiar with Ratchet and Clank (not my sort of game) but I'll add it to the list for part two along with Saint's Row. Thanks for the suggestions :-)
look up resistance fall of man from insomniac as well. there were some interesting weapons for that too
@phoenix
Resistance series 100%. Especially the secondary fires. Auger shields, Bullseye tags, Magnum detonator, Rossmore incindiary, then throw a Hedgehog for good measure. By the time I got to R3 they were onto Atomizers and Mutators. Armory speaks for itself.
Thank you to everyone for your excellent suggestions. They have all been added to the list for part two which should be published by the end of the month :-)
Ivs always wondered if there was gonna be a new worms game. Missed Worms Armageddon
Long as they get rid of the class system they introduced in Worms Revolution, that's what happened the last time they tried to reinvent the wheel
I miss the 3D games, Worms 4 was fantastic, if we could take that and give it the tech we have today the game could be amazing.
This game will revolutionize next-generation XD
I don't get why they don't just allow everything to be shared automatically online, custom sound banks and maps. WA had it right in that you could auto send any custom map with full images to players in the lobby, then just start the game. Now if only they had that in a newer game, and allowed custom sounds as well.
These days they just seem to be throwing out Worms games trying something new with almost each one, when they could've just taken what WA had and expanded on it.
I hope it's a 3d game. We need a new one that's better than the others. I think WMD is about as perfect as it gets for the 2D style imo
