The single player campaign contains 47 missions and 25 puzzles of accumulative difficulty spread across multiple themes such as medieval and spooky. There are also various customisation options for changing worm appearances, match rules, weapon loadouts and stage appearances Worms Revolution Extreme features options for a single player campaign, local and online multiplayer. An emphasis on dynamic physics, primarily water based with pools of water for worms to fall in and eventually drown if they couldn’t get out, weapons to wash enemies down hill and objects that would burst with water when attacked. A new 2.5D engine, meaning while the visuals are 3D, the playing field is glorious 2D, which is the only true way to play (if you’ve ever played a fully fledged 3D worms game you’ll know why). Revolution brought a few more new elements to the Worms series that continue into Worms Revolution Extreme. Heavys are the tanks, slow moving but powerful.

Scientists can produce better weapons and award the team with a health bonus. Scouts are able to move fast, jump higher and access small gaps, but have less powerful attacks. Action is turn-based, with each player controlling one worm within a specified time limit, and fighting to be the last worm standing.Ī new addition to the Revolution series is Worm classes Soldier, Scout, Scientist and Heavy.

Bazookas, grenades, shotguns are your mundane weapons and compliment the silliness of exploding sheep, holy hand grenade and banana bombs. Teams are scattered over a randomly generated map with an assortment of deadly weaponry at their disposal as well has hazards to be wary of on the landscapes. Two to four teams, either CPU or player controlled, are given a squadron of four worms. If you have somehow never played a Worms game then here are the basics. Worms Revolution Extreme includes all the content of Worms Revolution, plus the three DLC packs (Mars, Funfair and Medieval Tales) that were previously released in 2012 on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 along with narration from Matt Berry (Mighty Boosh/IT Crowd). If you’ve played the first Worms game on the Amiga, you’ll be familiar with the newest version making the series debut on PlayStation Vita. Oh sure, the graphics have become more colourful and animated, new weapons have been added, but very little has changed.

For 18 years we’ve been throwing the perfect grenade, unleashing havoc with a poorly judged homing missile and fearfully digging holes in a futile attempt to stay alive. The Worms series is one most gamers have played at one time or another.
