Worms Rumble Is Now Available on Steam!

Hey everyone!

Worms Rumble has just landed here on Steam and is available to purchase, download and play! Don your jet pack and thrust yourself into the first ever real time Worms game!

Watch the action packed launch trailer here:

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Here's some of the action you can expect of Worms Rumble:

[h3]3 Modes[/h3]

Take on the battle royale mode in Last Worm Standing or with 2 friends in the Squads mode. If that's not your cup of tea you can roll into the death match mode and hone your skills whilst respawning straight back into the action if you stand too close to a blossoming banana bomb.



[h3]32 player transforming maps[/h3]

As of launch there are 3 maps designed full of funny references, iconic landmarks and strategic areas to get the upper hand on opponents. The maps can also have the chance to transform mid way through the battle with missile launches and even portals opening to shake up the match.



[h3]Equip a whole host of powerful classic and new weaponry![/h3]

Wield classic weaponry from the Worms series, like the devastating holy hand grenade and also equip yourself with completely new guns like the projectile bouncing plasma launcher.



[h3]Customise your worm to the max[/h3]

Don't look like a basic worm... well actually you can but if you want to really get ahead on the worm walkway then there's so many options open to you! Felt like a dinosaur on the outside but on the inside you were worm... don't worry we've got the outfit for that! Plus, match many accessories to get a completely custom look. You will get xp in the matches to unlock new tiers of outfits and customisations to how you are presented in the game!



[h3]Don't wriggle around the maps[/h3]

In Worms Rumble, movement is key! Roll around the map to speed up and also scale walls with extra jumps but be careful as you'll need to carefully manage your stamina! Also, find classic equipment to give you an extra edge like the jetpack and utility belt which can take you to the skies!



[h3]Come up with unique ways to play and gain the edge[/h3]

Come up with unique tactics to gain the edge on your enemies whether that be returning a foes rocket with your baseball bat or shielding a teammate to be revived and become the 'Last Worm Standing'



Join the action now:

[h3]This is just the beginning![/h3]

Right! That's enough talk for now, the time has come to Rumble...

Humble's new Bundle is packed with Worms! Worms! Worms!

Ahh, Worms. The long-running, turn-based tactics series that sees oodles of little pink invertebrates blast chunks out of each other with bazookas, holy hand grenades, and exploding grannies. The Worms games are fantastic fun, and if you're a fan, Humble's new Bundle will surely be your bag - it's all about Worms! Worms! Worms!


The Humble - yes, you guessed it - Worms! Worms! Worms! Bundle is filled with $211 worth of Team 17's grub-related goodies, and like many of the site's other offerings, has four different price tiers on offer. First up, for a teeny weeny £0.77 / $1 you can unlock the original 1995 Worms, which - although missing the polish of the series' newer titles - is ideal for classic PC games fans. Also in tier one are three Worms spin-offs; the puzzle-action game Worms: Blast, and the self-explanatory Worms: Crazy Golf and Worms: Pinball.


The Bundle's second tier, meanwhile - which unlocks if you pay more than the average of £7.37 / $9.53 - has 2010's Worms Reloaded, one of the series' classic 2D artillery titles and a port of Worms 2: Armageddon, along with the 3D game Worms Ultimate Mayhem, and range of add-on goodies for the two.
