Hey Community,

We've seen your chatter on the forums about when the next update is coming to Worms W.M.D. Whilst we're not bringing you a date today we are going to share with you some exciting tid-bits on what you will be getting when the next free update for the game drops in the near future.

Good news! Custom Buildings and Custom Hats are coming to Worms W.M.D, as listed in our 12 month roadmap.

So naturally, to give you a preview of these features in action we've taken one of the most popular community made maps and hollowed it out to show you the power that's inside. Oh, we also used one of the developer's dog's head as a custom hat for a Worm.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPlfPtqOm2A

And a little look at some of the behind the scenes trickery you'll get upto to make your buildings work...




No release date to announce just yet, but it won't be too long!

Let us know what you're excited to create when this update drops over on the forums.

Forts Mode

Forts Mode has arrived!

This free update brings with it a new, fan favourite game mode that pits you, your Fort (and your allies) against a rival Fort in a tactical game of attack, defence and sweet grenade throws.

Choose one of 6 unique animated Forts, customise it with your preferred tactical upgrade consisting of either:
  • Static Gun
  • Sentry Gun
  • Magnet
  • Health Crate
  • Craft Crate
Then finally give your Fort that personal touch with a flag that’s decorated with your Steam profile picture. (This is automatically applied to the Fort)

You’re now ready to take to battlefield and fight to be the Forts Mode Master!

Oh and Forts Mode will now pop up in Ranked Mode, so prepare to add a few new chapters to your big book of Wormy tactics.

6 Brand New Forts
  • Castle Hassle
  • Donkey Dig
  • Reactor
  • Haunted
  • Pink Peril
  • Rocket
New customisation rewards – Unlock 3 new hats and 3 new Gravestones for your Worms by being victorious in Forts Mode!

Brand new crafted weapon - The 'Magnetised Drone' designed by Survii Gecko.

This brand new, community designed crafting upgrade gives the Mischievous Drone a new, offensive/defensive twist. You can choose to deploy this weapon with either a repel or attract magnet mode, thus allowing you to move mines around the map and either carry or push them into enemy Worms. You can also ‘land’ the Drone and it’ll become a stationary magnet in the location it comes to rest.

We’ve still got more content to come and you’ll be hearing from us about that in the future.

Until then, enjoy Forts Mode and get stuck in!
