I have never in my life played a Worms game I have never completely understood the point or focus of the games they just often seemed far to stupid to be any fun, of course I have been proven wrong on multiple occasions about my initial impressions on certain games and perhaps Worms would be no different. But the point of this is there is a new Worms game in coming for Current Generation Consoles minus the Wii U and the developers have given us a release date and some details on the game.
At this point in time Worms Battlegrounds has been given a release date for both America and Europe.
Team17 will launch the game digitally in the US on June 3rd for the PlayStation Store. In Europe, retail and digital releases are planned for May 30th.
Worms Battlegrounds will offer the following features:
• 25 single player story missions
