Worms Rumble, A Real-Time Battle Royale, Announces Upcoming Beta And Release Month

A new trailer for Worms Rumble, the upcoming real-time Worms spin-off, has arrived. It doesn't just contain new footage, though--it also announces a beta date and release window. Worms Rumble will be available on PS5, PS4, and PC in December 2020.

The game, which features 32-player Battle Royale matches and a Team Deathmatch mode, will be playable on PS4 and PC during an open beta beginning November 6. During this time, anyone can download the beta and test out the game's online multiplayer.

You can check the trailer out below. The game's visual style is closer to the 3D models of Worms Battlegrounds than the more-recent Worms W.M.D.

The game has previously run a closed beta, but now more players will be able to experience the game.

Worms Rumble is very different from previous games in the series, which has always been turn-based. The game, and the beta, will be cross-play across all systems the game is available on.

In GameSpot's review of Worms W.M.D., reviewer Jason D'Aprile gave the game an 8/10 and called it "easily the best game in the Worms series in several years."
