Worms Revolution

Gameplay follows on the traditional gameplay of the series, in which teams of worms take turns to use a variety of weapons and items in order to eliminate the opposing teams. 5D style, with the classic 2D gameplay presented with 3D visuals. New to the game is a stronger emphasis on dynamic physics. Unlike previous games in which water was limited to the bottom of the stage, there are now several areas throughout the level where pools of water can be found.

By blowing up the environment, players can set loose this water and wash away opponents. Being covered will cause worms to slowly drown as opposed to instantly dying, though falling off the bottom of the stage will still cause instant death. New weapons, such as the water pistol, also incorporate these water physics. Certain objects are also affected by physics, with certain abilities such as Telekinesis taking advantage of it.

The gameplay is based on the original 2D Worms games. On March 30, 2012, Team17 announced Worms Revolution with a completely new engine.

On May 26, 2012, the company announced that Matt Berry and Dean Wilkinson were working on the game. Wilkinson provided the script, and Berry narrated as fictional wildlife documentary maker Don Keystone.
