Worms Reloaded - Jonno
Hey everyone

We’re super excited to share with you that Worms Rumble will be launching on Steam this December!

Worms Rumble is the next instalment in the Worms franchise! For the first time ever in a Worms game you’ll be able to jump into intense, real-time battles with upto 32-players!

You can squad up with friends or fight solo in different game modes from Deathmatch to Last Worm Standing. Worms Rumble will feature a variety of fan-favourite weapons from past games as well as new additions to the franchise for you to get your wormy hands on!

So to celebrate this awesome news we’ve put together a new trailer for you that reveals a new, never before seen level as well as some new mobility items…



Let's take a look at some of the new trailer reveals shall we!


New Mobility Gadgets

Mobility tools play a huge part in any Worms game and today we’re revealing two of these tools that will be available in Worms Rumble for you to swing and soar through the skies with. (Yes, for those wondering, there’s more.)

As we all know, the ability to move around the map in a quick and stylish fashion is a key Worms feature and that’s no different in Rumble, so let’s take a look at what you’ll be getting to grips with:


The Grappling Gun

A close cousin of the Ninja Rope, the Grappling Gun rewards skillful worms with unrivaled mobility and speed, allowing you to swiftly navigate through the map, change your momentum and even access hard to reach locations.



Worms that become comfortable with this tool will also find many useful applications for the Grappling Gun during a firefight too…


The Jetpack

The classic Jetpack is back and ready to take your worm to the skies!

This tool is perfect for use in open spaces and larger rooms, giving you the ability to rain down destruction from above or fly above the carnage of an enemy Banana Bomb.



Perfect for ambushing enemies from above or quickly escaping a losing battle, Jetpack users should be aware that whilst highly mobile they are vulnerable to precision weapons whilst hovering, so unless you’re wanting to visit the respawn screen try and avoid that!


Bonus mobility move - Rocket Jumping!

Yes, for the first time ever you’ll be able to rocket jump in Worms (without ending your turn anyway!).

This high risk - high reward technique speaks for itself, so we’ll leave it to you, our brave players, to figure that one out in battle…


Crossplay Open Beta - Starting November 6th!

As existing Worms players you know Worms better than anyone. For that reason we’d love to invite you to try out Worms Rumble absolutely free from November 6th - November 8th in our crossplay open beta.

We know real-time Worms is very different to our turn-based history and that many of you will have questions on how it plays, what it is like and whether your experience with the turn-based classics will carry over to the real-time world. The Worms Rumble beta is the perfect time to have those questions answered, whilst also seeing how we’ve taken what makes Worms, well Worms, and crafted it into a real-time experience.

The Dev Team will be playing during the beta and be closely watching your feedback too, so it’s a brilliant time to share your thoughts directly with the team… And even lob a Banana Bomb at them!

With no sign-up required you’ll be able to jump straight into the action alone or with friends as you clash with players both here on Steam and on console.

We’ll be revealing more about the beta over the coming weeks, so keep an eye on the Worms Twitter and Worms Rumble Steam Community page to stay in the loop!


Pre-order & Digital Deluxe Editions

Just like its peers, Worms Rumble will be packed full of cosmetics for you to customise your worm and make them unique.

Some of these will be available from the start, with lots more being unlocked by just playing the game however you like and progressing through the ranks, using your preferred weapons and completing special challenges.

As a special thank you to those that pre-order Worms Rumble here on Steam we’ll also be giving them a unique cosmetic pack known as the ‘New Challenger’ bonus pack!



If you’re a fan of the classics and want to rep your favourite weapons then may we introduce you to the Digital Deluxe Edition that includes the following…




Here's a first look at the Retro Commando outfit too!




Pre-order Worms Rumble Now!

If you like what you’ve seen you can pre-order Worms Rumble from right now to secure your exclusive cosmetic pack and support us ahead of launch:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1186040/Worms_Rumble/

You can also support us with a Wishlist if you’re not ready to pre-order just yet!

Thank you for taking the time to check out the newest iteration of Worms. We’re excited to share this next step with you and we hope you enjoyed today’s news.

We look forward to chatting about Worms Rumble with you over on the forums and hurling a Holy Hand Grenade or two at you in the beta on November 6th.

See you then!

Worms Armageddon - Jonno
Hey everyone,

Worms Armageddon has been out for 21 years and we're pleased to say that a huge new patch is now live for the game!

Check out the awesome patch trailer below:



Worms Armageddon version 3.8 is finally released! It’s been a long time coming, and we hope you’ll enjoy all the features, changes, and bug fixes that made it into this update. To whet your appetite, here are our highlights:

Extended Scheme Options



Customise your matches in weird and wonderful ways with over 70 new scheme options. Manipulate physics, fire more than one weapon in a turn, have worms bounce around the landscape, or choose from a huge array of other tweaks in order to perfect your scheme. These options are only for the seasoned Worms veteran, and as such you will need to have completed the Single Player mode and unlocked The Full Wormage in order to access them.

For those who used the RubberWorm module in older versions of the game, all features formerly accessed through that module are now hiding behind the shiny new Extended Scheme Options star button. Relive your past glories – all your old RubberWorm recorded games can be played back with no additional software required.




Tweening

Worms Armageddon has never looked this smooth! In older versions, in-game movement and animations would be capped at the update rate of the game engine: 50 frames per second. In 3.8 though, experience the fully silky smoothness of whatever frame rate your hardware can support – movement is now visually interpolated between game engine frames as your worms and weapons glide majestically through the air. Watch a recorded game in slow motion and you’ll never want to go back!




Windowed Mode

Worms Armageddon can now be played in a window! Awkward screen resolution changes and game capture issues are a thing of the past if you enable this feature in Advanced Settings.




Streamers’ Heaven



Along with Windowed Mode, a couple of additional options have been added specifically for streamers to make their lives easier. Audio can now be allowed to continue playing when the game window loses focus, and the new Streaming Mode will prevent IP addresses from being displayed when hosting or joining an online game (see the Update Documentation for more information).


CPU Teams at Large

CPU teams can now be added to online games. They’re always uniquely distinguishable from player teams to prevent shenanigans, but you can now finally team up with your friends to take down a swarm of those computer-controlled invertebrates. Or if you’d just like to watch a relaxing game while you work, matches containing only CPU teams may now also be started, both online and offline.




Mapshot



Have you ever wrought a beautiful trail of destruction on your Worms Armageddon landscape and wished you could play a brand new game on the land that remained? Or have you ever been interrupted in the middle of a game and wished you could extract the remaining landscape to help you set up a rematch? Well, now you can! Simply type /map into the in-game chat or press Alt + Pause at any time to save a snapshot of the current state of the map, allowing you to continue your rampage from where you left off!


Compatibility

Much effort has been expended in allowing everyone, no matter their hardware, to have a good Worms Armageddon experience. Further tweaks have been made to improve the experience of Windows 10 users. Worms Armageddon now runs well under Wine or Proton on Linux. A new OpenGL renderer has been added which, depending on your hardware, might outperform the other renderers. Windowed mode means there’s no more need for your hardware to support specific screen resolutions. And for those into retro computing, Worms Armageddon has been seen to once again run on systems of yore…




Translations

Through the tireless efforts of volunteer translators, Worms Armageddon is now fully translated to seven languages (Finnish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish), with four more languages with partial translations on the way. The Update Documentation (Readme) now has translations to Finnish, French and Spanish!




Fixes and More

Over seven years in development, this update’s release notes list consists of:
  • 370 fixes,
  • 45 changes, and
  • 61 new features.
Our thanks go to all the hardworking members of the Worms Armageddon community who helped make this update a reality. And for the full list of what’s new, check the Update Documentation included with this update!

That wraps up the patch notes, now grab your Holy Hand Grenades, hop on your Super Sheep and jump into the water when you actually meant to fire your Bazooka.

oh and if you're looking to get an early hands on with the next Worms game, Worms Rumble, you can sign up for the Closed Beta until 5:30pm BST / 6:30pm CEST right HERE and play today.
