Team 17 has announced the launch of the first Worms merchandise products, just in time for the Christmas holiday shopping period. The Worms brand has been at the forefront of modern distribution trends and has seen sales in excess of thirteen million on mobile phone handsets, as well as enjoying huge success on the new digital video-game platforms, with Number 1 hits on Xbox LIVE Arcade, PlayStation Network, and Steam for PC.
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
The Humble Worms Bundle just launched today. It features games like Worms W.M.D., Worms Revolution, Worms Armageddon, and more. As usual, you pay what you want and a percentage goes to charity.
