This was THE multiplayer game when I was a kid at the turn of the millenium. I didn’t even own the game myself, but everybody I knew had the game on PC (or at least Worms 2), and basically everybody had a PC at this point, so whenever you’d visit somebody it was safe to say you’d be playing Worms at some point. And something that is imo kinda underrated about Worms in general is how friendly it is towards varying sizes of friend groups. A common problem when I was a kid was either not having enough controlers when playing on consoles, the game not supporting more than 2 to 4 players, and on PC often not being very multiplayer friendly at all even with two players bumping elbows in front of a keyboard. But with Worms being turn based and technically supporting as many as 48 players if you were willing to control one Worm each (and the ability to name each Worm after yourselves), everybody could participate regardless of controllers or group size. Add to that supporting tons of languages that usually wouldn’t get game translations (especially back then; it even got localized voice overs!), and mild cartoon violence that felt edgy to us as 10 year olds, it really was the perfect kids game. Worms Armageddon truly was a special game.
Had the original on Saturn and Armageddon on Dreamcast. Loved both but to this day Armageddon is still the best Worms game. Imo the formula was pretty much perfected with this game. Happy to see it return.
This was basically the ONE game my whole family would get in on, even my parents who didn’t really like games. The laughs we shared together over this are some of my favorite memories. Can’t wait to pick this up!
I can't believe it. Quake II, Pokémon Yellow (in the form of LGPE) and now Worms Armageddon on Switch??? A *huge* chunk of my childhood is now on one and the same console! 😌
I was 8 years old- this was the first Dreamcast game I opened on Christmas. When we began playing it, we were completely confused (having just upgraded from the original NES; _anything_ that wasn't an 8-bit platformer was bizarre!)... but over the Christmas holiday, we got the hang of it (when the baseball bats finally started flying, it was game over, son!)... I turned 33 a few months back. "Worms" is still a staple in my household.
Having localized voice lines meant so much as a kid. Being able to play as a team of Swedish worms and imitating their voice lines as I sent my friends flying across the screen with a baseball bat are core childhood memories for me.
@@angelhernandezvega6064 last time I played on Steam, I couldn’t find it. I thought I looked pretty hard for it too because it’s my dad’s favorite and Worms is one of the few video games I can get him to play. It wouldn’t surprise me if it did get removed. Somebody probably whined that it was culturally insensitive or some silly nonsense like that.
@@angelhernandezvega6064 I think so. Tried to look it up last time I played on Steam (it’s my dad’s favorite voice pack) and couldn’t find it. I just assumed somebody whined about it being “culturally insensitive” and got it pulled.
Add a sensible anti-cheat, ranked games with scheme rotation every month, ladder (1v1, 2v2, 3v3), skins for worms, more weapons and a perfect Worms game. Like W:A 2.0.
i still remember playing this via good ole CD back when its so good hearing the classic intro retooled for this trailer!!! It's time to pay respects to the Worms game that put Team17 on the map!
Ahh, nostalgic, i remember that good old days i played this game on Nokia N-Gage and with friends via bluetooth. The one i always use is Holy Grenade and Banana bomb lmao.
I used to play a clone of this game on my grandpa's phone called Moles or something like that and loved it whenever I was bored. Might actually check this one out
Oooh. I cant give Team 17 any money. I was one of those Yooka Laylee Kickstarters and they sent me a PC key instead of a Switch key because "Our Publisher required it months ago" and I was like "yeah, I did it back then" "Nope, Publisher said no" And now I'm petty.
Censorship. You can add any voiceline you want to PC though, they're all available for download including Angry Scots. It even has a speechbank editor so you could record your own voice

Worms Armageddon truly was a special game.
Yeah, never owned it but it was on every school and college network I came across.
^^ lol this dork didn't even have a friend with a cd burner
@@a.gillmax4173 I did but he gave me a copy of Championship Manager 01-02 instead.
In the 90s we had scorched earth, which was great for the same reason. Plus it fit in a disk, so you could take it anywhere.
laughing at your friend tossing a grenade & having it bounce back in their face was so fun
I don’t know why Team17 won’t just release a whole Worms collection, but I’ll take it.
They hardly make any new worms game at all. I miss worms ultimate mayhem 😢
I need the DS games.
They have on Steam
would be kinda pointless given how everything is usually in the following game from the first
There are only two especially good Worms games, Armageddon and World Party, and they're almost entirely identical.
I recall playing this specific Worms game so much as a kid. I have fond memories of playing this with my brothers
Funny how this is still the best Worms game
Is it? I remember the PSP one being really good.
Why is it better than WMD?
wish tomar was the voice of the trailer
did i hear 3rd annual worms playthrough?
Imagine if it was Guy Harris
Tomar'll be playable, with his iconic Tomar Emeralds Power Up©
who
that voice is from the original game intro after a lot a music you really have to wait to hear that voice acting and it was worth every moment!
Best Worms game of them all
Except for Worm Odyssey
Yes!! The physics of the newer games doesn't even compare to Worms 2/Armageddon /World Party
This is the game in the series I play religiously on my PC. It's still worth my time, especially online.
I just remember playing the one on the DS and making custom maps with the touchscreen. I think it was Open Warfare 2.
Worms W.M.D. is actually peak Worms
Had the original on Saturn and Armageddon on Dreamcast. Loved both but to this day Armageddon is still the best Worms game. Imo the formula was pretty much perfected with this game. Happy to see it return.
“Pim you really need to get glasses, man. You just ate worms”
I remember that family guy episode
@@anthonysolano4027 Wasn't it from Breaking Bad?
@@alexsilva28nah bro that’s an obvious The Big Bang Theory reference
@@TCGproductions1 nah I remember it from Always Sunny
@@Brienanderson34 I don't know what your talking about, this has to be a classic gumball reference.
ZACH THERES WORMS
yes a new excuse for oney plays to play this again
a tetris collection _and_ a worms armageddon port? man digiclipse have been busy
WE'RE THROWING HOLY HAND GRENADES WITH THIS ONE!!
An amazing weapon that pays tribute to The Holy Grail, and the one thing that can take out a killer rabbit!

The only best Worms game ever made
So many hours playing this on the Dreamcast. My sons are going to be learning a lesson about the holy hand grenade.
HALLELUJAH!!!!!

This song, man, brings back memories
still love they had Dutch voice lines

@@n7sorcerer419they removed kamikaze?

I remember playing this on PC several years ago. Definitely looking forward to having it on the go.
The worms are back in town
Worms players, is this the same Worms Armageddon on PS3 that got renamed Worms Reloaded on PC, or the original Worms Armageddon?
It is the original Worms Armageddon.
Original Armageddon but not up-to-date with the current PC patch unfortunately

As someone who still owns the N64 version of this game this gets me pumped
Played the demo of this game back in the day, and loved it!
Cool. Now can we get Worms 3D next? 🙏

ADD THE N64 SOUNDTRACK AS WELL AND WE GOT A DEAL
I would still love you if you were a Worms Armageddon
The theme song for Worms Armageddon is still the best Worms theme! It will never be topped!
Loved it back in the day. Was just playing it a few weeks ago. I need that song!
I remember playing this a lot on PC and online (rope racing), but play Worms with a controller? That just never felt right.
worms
worms
worms
Worms
worms
worms
Gladens me to see it stay exactly the same, legendary game deserves legendary respect
The nostalgia...
THE WORMS ARE BACK!
Damn this is nostalgic. I had completely forgotten how good the soundtrack and sounds are! Music goes hard.
damn i forgot about this franchise, happy to see one of the games getting a re-release!
Used to play this so much with my brother on Playstation 1, so cool to see it's coming to Switch too!
Finally!! Armageddon is definitive worms
That Collector's Edition better not be Limited Run Games
I’m crossing my fingers that since Team17 is European they’re working with Pix’n Love instead of LRG. I have way better experience with them.
Omg I used to play this SO much when the internet was still a new thing.
i love worms armageddon, this is great
This is such a nostalgia trip! I hope this one plays as well as I remember 😊
Loved this game as an kid, did not expect to hear anything about it ever again
Man I forgot how good the soundtrack is for this masterpiece. 😊
Omg this game was a huge part of my childhood
Wow,someone remembered the gbc version of this game!
So many great childhood memories from this game.
0:46 Don't know who the voice actor is, but they did a phenomenal job
The peak is back
One of the best games of all time, period.
WE ARE SO BACK
Just want to point out this was on the Dreamcast, and that makes it another Dreamcast game with a sick soundtrack
So good! Surprised it took them so long to put this on the switch
Dude no way 😭😭 I grew up playing this! Can't wait!!
I hope they kept the portuguese voices on that ❤
Oooh. I cant give Team 17 any money. I was one of those Yooka Laylee Kickstarters and they sent me a PC key instead of a Switch key because "Our Publisher required it months ago" and I was like "yeah, I did it back then"
"Nope, Publisher said no"
And now I'm petty.
I hope they have all the voice packs back from the original.
Still the best Worms game ever, I think this will play nicely on the Switch!
I’ll buy every Worms game 4 times on every console if just given the opportunity
Why does that theme still make me emotional?
Oh all the carnage with my friends during N64 multiplayer hangouts...
Never managed to unlock all the weapons then though.
I have this game on the n64 its really good
Wow, we have come full circle!
I played Worms World Party, can't wait to play this one
I miss 1999.
You should deliver more of your monthly old school games
Good enough! Thank you team 17 ❤ I'll take a cartridge please. Love that they finally brought back the real theme song🎉
When are they gonna port Worm Odyssey?
Now ain't this a surprise!
My college roommate and I played the fool out of this game. He’d always get me with the bungie rope and a banana bomb. “Here’s a Glasgow kiss!”
"We Got Worms" ... That's What We're Gonna Call it!
Honestly the peak of gaming.
BEST GAME EVER!
This is the best worms game! So good
WORMS!!! CLASSIC!!!!
Please tell me we get the classic worms theme that were available by doing specific steps on the PC version ! That is a must !
Wow thats cool that its include the Game Boy Color version !!!
That was the Gameboy version I just saw?
@@rashounjohnson9562 yes !!!
Love this game (and Hedgewars, which sadly isn't on the switch yet ^^)
We are so back
Love this game. But which version is it based on? PC? N64? PS1/Dreamcast?
I has to be N64 right... right?!
@@ShiivaWilding Hopefully
This better have Angry Scots unlike the Steam version, which is missing it for some reason.
And Yorkshire Tykes
It does not have Angry Scots.
Censorship. You can add any voiceline you want to PC though, they're all available for download including Angry Scots. It even has a speechbank editor so you could record your own voice
@@Thornskade yeah but it's a pain to get controller support on PC version.
Now do Worms World Party
@@some-online-dude YOU GET NOTHING!!
Cool.
Even though I already have a CD copy of this game, and the Steam version, both of which can still play online...
Nice. I got a dijital copy but I want worms 3D port. It was good on ps2 and would be awesome on Nintendo switch
I want a new 3D worms
I'm honestly surprised it took this long to came out on switch.
Does this anniversary have online? And does it have funny screen filters? I am very interested in the collectors edition for the poster and pins.
Would they have to change the intro audio to avoid copyright issues?
Returned childhood.
It's wormin' time!
the game we needed, the game that we desearve
where to buy the collectors edition?
I need my Futurama voice clips to make it complete.
Games what u can´t hate
I’d kill for a new 3d worms. They weren’t the best, but I have a special place in my heart for it.
Same especially a remaster of Worms Forts
8 years late but ill take it!
