Playing Worms by Yourself Has Never Felt So Good!
Never fear Worms fans! You can give your collection of worms back to nature and put away the Bazooka fashioned from a Rubber Band, Paper Clip, and Wood Chippings found at your local park. Team 17 have released a trailer depicting the single player mode, for their latest 3D Wormtastic venture, Worms Ultimate Mayhem.
Worms Ultimate Mayhem is set to include all of the solo content from both Worms 3D and Worms 4: Mayhem. Of course that’s not all. Gameplay and visuals have gone into surgery and will be arriving with some fresh faced enhancements to keep us all happy.
Team 17 Head of Design and self-proclaimed action-man John Dennis explains “”With a massive 60 single player missions the game has a single player experience to entertain and test the mettle of even the most destructive “Worms” fan. Set across 5 distinct historical time periods, the main campaign takes the player on a time-travelling caper, from Jurassic swamps to the marvelous castle towers of Camelot. Each mission features comical intro sequences, all-new audio and each historical theme book-ended with a full-motion video sequence to advance the story. As the player completes these missions, further single player missions then unlock for even more 3D dimensional destructive action!
“And as if that wasn’t enough, we have also introduced a helpful new aiming utility, the ‘Binoculars’, and enhanced the missions with gameplay refinements to make them more accessible and rewarding. Whilst the inclusion of a diverse collection of challenge modes sees players needing to hone their skills using the Parachute, piloting the Jetpack, aiming with the Sniper Rifle and steering the Super Sheep if they want to write their names in the “Worms Ultimate Mayhem” hall of fame.
“Close the curtains and take the phone off the hook… there’s some serious 3D “worming” to be done!”
You can see the lunacy filled trailer for yourself below.
Team 17 have said that information on the extensive Multiplayer will also be released soon.
Worms Ulitimate Mayhem will be released later this year on Xbox LIVE Arcade, PlayStation Network, and for PC via Steam.
Charles Le Sueur
I have been gaming since Christmas day 1989ish, when my siblings and I were given a NES. It had Super Mario Bros and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with it. Although I never completed TMNT, I did get past the underwater level by the dam!
I will happily give any genre a try, unless its something scary. I believe Luigi's Mansion was the closet thing to a horror game that I could stomach. I own a PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and a Nintendo DSi (Serious thought is going into the potential purchase of a 3DS).
When I am not gaming I am usually shouting at Arsenal to take a shot! I can also be found playing football, squash, ultimate frisbee, cooking, or passing the time by making noise. I can do a pretty convincing Jam Jar Lid! ^^
