Some squirmy new screens directly from Acclaim's January press tour.


Worms 3D expands upon the successful history of the turn-based action strategy franchise, featuring a bizarre and outlandish array of explosive weaponry and laugh-out-loud instances that will forever change the face of war. Worms 3D enhances the classic Worms gameplay, including favorite series’ weapons such as ninja ropes, jetpacks and super sheep, as well as hilarious new weapons that were designed to take advantage of the new liberating 3D landscape. Worms 3D also includes fully destructible environments, more than 100 unlockable hidden features and a wide variety of single and multiplayer modes, including head-to-head online play.

Worms 3D will also feature stunning 3D animation of the Worms themselves, which surpasses anything seen in Worms titles to date, including the FMV sequences seen in previous games!

Features:

  • Teams of worms, dukin' it out for victory. The team with the last worms standing is the winner. Simple, yet addictive.
  • A bizarre collection of ludicrously destructive weapons :: feel the earth move with the mighty earthquake, or call destruction from the skies with an air-strike!
  • Combat across either custom-created landscapes, or randomly-generated terrain. With millions of permutations, the combat never gets predictable.
  • Customizable teams :: from their names to what they say, and even the fanfare that plays when they win!
  • Incredible multiplayer action :: play with your friends around the same console or PC. Up to 4 players sharing on the same machine.
  • Truly Worldwide Internet gaming. Either from your office or the comfort of your own home, compete with other wormers anywhere in the world.
  • A massive online following, with planned leagues, ladder games, forums and gaming rooms for players of all skill levels.
  • PC Editor allows the player to create their own playing environments.
  • Quite literally more game options than you could shake a stick at :: plus the ability to try random combinations of modes with 'Wormpot'!
  • Turn-based action like you've never seen.
  • All new missions, play modes, 'Wormpot' modes, training, and challenge modes. All new challenges and all new game structure.
  • A more immersive single player experience based on unlocking challenges, secret missions, sound sets and landscapes.
  • A choice of camera modes :: 1st person to look around, and blimp view for a strategic overview of the situation.
  • Environmental conditions such as rain, snow, night and day add to the strategic decisions facing the players.
  • Randomly-generated, and fully deformable landscape, all in true 3D.
  • The inclusion of the 'Wormopedia' and the gallery allow the player to peruse their achievements and view the story behind some of the 'Worms' legends.
