Video Gaming News - January 2005
San Francisco, CA (January 5, 2005) - SEGA today announced that it
will be publishing Worms 3D for the Xbox and Worms: Forts Under Siege, for the
PlayStation 2 and Xbox. All are scheduled to ship to stores on March 1, 2005.
From SEGA:
The Worms phenomenon has taken the gaming world by storm,
gripping the minds of players everywhere with its sharp humor and accessible,
strategic gameplay. Team17, the developers of the classic 2D Worms titles, are
personally bringing this unique franchise into the third dimension.
Worms 3D
In Worms 3D, the classic Worms game-play features turn-based fighting and relies
on the player to judge the trajectory and strength of their shots in order to
inflict maximum damage on opponents. But now, the Worms universe is rendered in
full 3D, and the Xbox Live service from Microsoft Game Studios is being
incorporated to offer competitive online support. Favorite off-the-wall weapons
such as bazookas, holy grenades, dynamite, air strikes, and flying sheep are all
present, with the addition of brand new weapons designed to take advantage of
the 3D landscape. With a multitude of tactics available, coupled with the ever
changing, randomly generated maps, Worms 3D takes Worms' award-winning gameplay
to the next level.
Worms: Forts Under Siege
Worms: Forts Under Siege ratchets the strategy of the series' gameplay up a
notch, allowing players to build huge fortifications to defend against opponent
attacks. This new take on the Worms formula will allow players to join Egyptian
tribes, participate in Greco-Roman sieges, battle with Oriental Samurai, and
fight alongside King Arthur's Medieval Knights.
Worms 3D for Xbox and Worms: Forts Under Siege for PlayStation 2 and Xbox will
be available for an MSRP of $19.95.
