Worms Head into Outer Space with New Tactical Mechanics
Studio Team17 has released an overview trailer detailing the concept of the upcoming game Worms: Galactic Tactics. The new project reimagines the classic chaos of the iconic franchise by combining it with tactical roguelike elements. The game's release is scheduled for the Switch 2 console in 2027.
Galactic Gauntlet Features and Upgrades
In Worms: Galactic Tactics, players will take command of a squad of three battle worms taking on galactic gladiatorial arenas under the aegis of the despotic Emperor Flugg. Players can expect:
- Fully 3D destructible arenas: alter the terrain, blow up barrels, and send enemies falling into the abyss.
- Flexible weapon modification system: both classic and new arsenals (from the bazooka to the Cosmic Donkey and Meteor Sheep) can be boosted with additional effects—such as burn, shields, or knockback.
- Roguelike elements: after a defeat, spend collected resources ("Juice") on permanent upgrades for your team before the next run.
- Accuracy mini-games: the success of a shot depends on proper timing and positioning.
- Multiplayer and customization: 1v1 duels locally and online, as well as a plethora of hats, voice lines, and gravestones to customize your squad.
