Team 17 Announces Worms Ultimate Mayhem

Worms just can’t get enough attention starting off as an old classic small but innovative game.  Now there has been updates, upgrades, expansions of the game and now the new Worms Ultimate Mayhem and Head of Design Team 17, John Dennis  announced that the game will be in 3D as a turn-based game.  Worms Ultimate Edition is a combination of the older “Worms 3D” and “Worms 4: Mayhem” games crammed into one collector’s edition digital package, entitled ‘3D Worms Ultimate Mayhem’ which will include 60 single player missions, 12 graphical themes, 38 weapons, full online capability for up to four players and and many ways to customize your worm adding a whole new Worms experience.  Official Press Release below.

London, UK – July, 2011 – Annelid aficionados Team 17 today announced the first details of Worms™ Ultimate Mayhem, their forthcoming outing of digital destruction.

Worms™ Ultimate Mayhem is a souped-up, re-vamped, high definition reimagining of Worms 3D and Worms 4: Mayhem, bringing both games together in one incredibly over-stuffed, over-the-top package for Xbox 360 from  Xbox LIVE®, for PlayStation®3 from  , Playstation® Network and also for PC from Steam™. Including all of the content from the original games, Worms™ Ultimate Mayhem also brings a whole host of anarchic additions – more single player missions, more puzzles, more customisation, more worms!

Team 17 Head of Design John Dennis voices his delight at bringing the 3D turn-based mayhem into the current generation:

“It’s been an absolute pleasure getting the chance to revisit two titles that we remember so fondly. In squeezing the entire content of both “Worms 3D” and “Worms 4: Mayhem” into one collector’s edition digital package, we’ve delivered a “best of the 3D Worms games” experience, complete with 60 single player missions, 12 graphical themes, 38 weapons, full online play for up to four players and literally more ways to customise your worm and game experience than we can count.”

“As if that wasn’t enough, we’ve also taken the opportunity to add high-definition sparkle to the visuals and make a raft of improvements and extra content as suggested by fans of the original titles: from vastly improved camera functionality and voice-acted mission intro sequences, to all-new challenges and multiplayer maps. We’re very proud of the original games, and hope that in delivering this definitive version, fans of the original titles and players new to them will take the time to check out “Worms Ultimate Mayhem.”

Worms™ Ultimate Mayhem will release later in 2011 , literally full to bursting with more content than you can shake a worm at!
