Worms Rumble News

Hey everyone!

We're thrilled to announce Deadly Docks our new map is live right now, a day early - our Christmas treat! With it comes free festive outfits, weapons and accessories! Plus, choose between a shark or a captain with premium outfits and much more!



We've shipped the new map, Deadly Docks, it's time to make a splash near the sea!

We invite you to engage in total seaside warfare in this new map! As a working dock it's a busy place with moving platforms and even a ship that can cast-off during the match... bon voyage!

Here's the original trailer:

It's time to embrace festive cheer! We have a whole bunch of free festive skins to get your hands on for the holidays. Pull Santa's sleigh and put on one of the 3 variants of the Reindeer outfit!



Get your elf on the shelf with either a green or red outfit. Plus open up a set of hats and a whole bunch of festive gun skins!



Take a bite out of these new purchasable premium outfits with a choice between a shark or captain outfit, both have 3 color variants included! These will drop tomorrow so keep your eye out! Let us know which side you'll take!





Also available to purchase will be the Armageddon weapon skin pack - feel some nostalgia from one of the favorite Worms titles.



Plus, purchase the emote pack and even teabag your enemies, of course we mean dipping a teabag into a mighty fine brew, get your mind out of the gutter!





We've improved the onboarding when matchmaking for new players, hopefully this will lead to a better experience in players first few matches.

• Fixed an issue where the worm can got stuck in the reviving pose when reviving a squadmate with another player
  
• Fixed an issue on the DualSense controller where audio from other players are heard through the speaker
  
• Lab modes will now show the correct arena on the loading screens
  
• Fixed an issue which caused the Rocket Shield durability to reset if dropped and picked back up
  
• Fixed an issue where the mouse cursor can move between screens on a multiscreen set up
  
• Fixed the high / medium tier crate locations on the spawn select screen.
  
• The "Better Than Most" trophy unlock criteria ignores players that have left/advanced out of the game
  
• Fixed an issue which prevented stats for "killed" and "killed by" to be shown incorrectly
  
• Fixed an issue which caused the worm to be inverted if a grenade is thrown directly against a wall that is being slid down
  
• Fixed an issue which sometimes prevented worm from jumping after falling from heights
  
• Fixed some instances where the player's worms can be seen to flicker on the player card.
  
• Potential fix for 'Last Worm Standing' and 'Better Than Most' trophies
  

For now it's time to rumble!

Hey everyone!

The Lab events will now be extended to 4 days, with 'Pistols at Dawn' ending Monday 14th at 3PM GMT!

We thought we'd also post the balance changes again as there was a lot of information in the last news post!



Sentry Launcher

• Health increased from 30 to 50
  
• Targeting speed increased slightly
  
• Damage increased from 5 to 8
  
• Accuracy increased slightly
  
• Targeting range increased slightly
  

Rocket Shield

• Health increased from 200 to 300 (Remember you can see the current health next to your reticule!)
  
• Reload time reduced from 1.2 to 1.0
  
• Damage increased from 30 to 35
  

Plasma Blaster

• Fixed an issue where the input to charge up between shots could be missed, as a result increased the charge up time from 0.7 to 0.9 to balance out
  
• Slightly reduced projectile speed to allow more potential to be blocked with the Baseball Bat
  

Bazooka

• Reload time increased from 0.75 to 0.9
  

QOL

• Increased player participation XP per match
  
• Increased weapon XP rewarded for time held and damage dealt (this should help with more passive weapons like shield/turrets)
  
• Minor tweaks to drop rates across all weapon crates
  

Let us know all of your thoughts on the new balance and the Lab being around longer below!

For now it's time to rumble!

Hey Worms!

We have put together an infographic with all of the recorded stats of Worms Rumble so far! Thank you to everyone for helping us to make this launch week great!

[h2]Week 1 Stats[/h2]



Some of the stats are staggering, and we dare say a little worrying on the death to revival ration of Worms (yes we know DM exists!)

One stat that stands out is that Last Worm Standing Survival rate has increased by 8 seconds from the beta! It seems that Worms are getting much better at the game!

We also announced The Lab special events starting this Thursday! We'll also be revealing the content coming next week!
