Worms returns as a real-time battle royale game


By contrast, in Last Squad Standing mode, your teammates can revive your worm. For those who want a more traditional gaming experience, they will also be a deathmatch mode where you will have to score as many eliminations as possible before the end of the match.

There is another, more significant change in store for the franchise. For now, the battles will take place in real time instead of turn by turn. According to producer Danny Martin, the developer of the Team17 series had to adjust the pace of the worms to accommodate the change in real time. In past games, your soldiers slowly crawled across the battlefield. In The worms rumbleThey will roll, jump on the wall and dodge incoming projectiles. The problem is that doing so will drain a resistance bar that only recharges when you give your worms a chance to catch their breath. “It took a lot of balance to get this feel right and at the same time ensure that it felt fair to all players,” said Martin.

The worms rumble Coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 later this year. Team17 said the game will support cross-platform play, but did not say what other systems the game will be available on.
