XBLA Worms Ultimate Mayhem

[Spectral Jester]

My favourite XBLA game is getting revamped and remade.

 

There's more Worms on the way to the Xbox Live Arcade this year with a revamped and overhauled re-imaging of Worms 3D and Worms 4: Mayhem, for Worms Ultimate Mayhem. Bundling both games together in one bumper package, all of the content from the original game will be included, as well as a host of new features.

 

More single-player missions, more puzzles, more customisation and a host of new themes and quirky weapons will be crammed into this particular can of Worms, when Worms Ultimate Mayhem launches on XBLA.

 

 

"It's been an absolute pleasure getting the chance to revisit two titles that we remember so fondly. In squeezing the entire content of both "Worms 3D" and "Worms 4: Mayhem" into one collector's edition digital package, we've delivered a "best of the 3D Worms games" experience, complete with 60 single-player missions, 12 graphical themes, 38 weapons, full online play for up to four players and literally more ways to customise your worm and game experience than we can count," said Team 17 Head of Design, John Dennis.

 

"As if that wasn't enough, we've also taken the opportunity to add high-definition sparkle to the visuals and make a raft of improvements and extra content, as suggested by fans of the original titles: from vastly improved camera functionality and voice-acted mission intro sequences, to all-new challenges and multiplayer maps. We're very proud of the original games, and hope that in delivering this definitive version, fans of the original titles and players new to them will take the time to check out Worms Ultimate Mayhem."

 

Worms Ultimate Mayhem will be squirming onto the Xbox Live Arcade later in 2011

Registered so I could see this thread, finally no one even replied.

Anyway, I got that on the team-17 forum:

Binoculars now serve as an accurate guide for beginners as it shows you the required angle and power of the Bazooka that you need to hit the target shown in the Binoculars. At the easiest difficulty there are lots of these and as the difficulty gets harder there are less and then none available.

Can't wait for the game too.
