Worms series aims for fairway in Worms Crazy Golf photo

Team 17's classic series of turn-based games featuring heavily armed annelids, Worms, is taking a sharp slice into new territory with the announcement of Worms Crazy Golf. Coming later this year to PlayStation 3, PC (via Steam) and iOS devices, the worms will take the battlefield to the links, bringing many of their signature weapons and power-ups with them.

The game will feature three full courses of eighteen holes, featuring puzzle elements and the charm you've come to expect from the franchise. I'm a big fan of Worms, though the last few releases haven't really brought anything all that new to the table. This is definitely something new.

The word "annelids" makes me miss System Shock 2.

As a Worms fan & a Golf fan, I'm really intrigued by this game... I'm sad that XBLA is not among the list of platforms though.

I have a PS3 as well so it won't stop me from checking out the game but the 360 is my primary platform so I would've preferred to see it released for that.

It's just crazy enough it might work. :)

I'll probably be picking it up for iOS though since it seems like that might be the demographic they are designing the game for. Plus, it seems like it would be a good game to kill a few minutes on the ride to work.

How could this not work? Worms is already basically golf in 2 dimensions, just with mobile targets and weapons instead of balls. The basic concepts are pretty dang similar. Think about it.

Honestly, I really wish Team 17 would fix Reloaded first, the game is still a mess.

I buy every Worms game(fan since World Party) so I'll be getting this as well. Looks fun and it'll be interesting to see how well golf works in a 2d environment.

@kanten And whats wrong with Reloaded?
