Worms Rumble

Worms Rumble is a Worms game developed and published by Team17. It was first released on 1 December 2020. Unlike prior games, Worms Rumble features only real-time combat, breaking the mold of the series. 32 player Battle Royale and Deathmatch modes are available.

Gameplay
For the first time in the series, matches are exclusively real-time battles.

Reception
The game was first teased with a trailer showing a TV with 2D Worms games being played back on it being smashed by a Worm with a Baseball Bat. It was taken as a sign a new 3D Worms game was being developed, the first brand new game in that style in 15 years since Worms 4: Mayhem, but when it was revealed it was actually a real-time Worms battle royale game, fans reacted negatively, both due to the mismatched advertising, and the fact that the new Worms game was an unwanted real-time action game.
