Handheld gamers can now compete online in Worms' famous battles of the past and fictional fights of the future.
THQ announced today that Worms: Open Warfare 2 is scheduled to blast its way onto the PSP, Nintendo DS and wireless handsets this summer.
Players will be able to challenge others from all over the world via multiplayer battles in places such as the Spanish Armada conquest in "Pirates!," the frontlines of real war in "World War II" and laser shooting spaceships in "Space War!".
In addition to the classic Deathmatch mode, the game also includes robust new single and multiplayer modes such as Rope Race, Fort, Puzzle and Campaign modes that challenge players to use new strategies and teamwork to defeat their enemies. The new Firing Range allows gamers to test their weapons skills, including 11 new weapons like the Bunker Buster and Buffalo of Lies as well as classics such as the Super Sheep, Concrete Donkey and the Holy Hand Grenade.
Gamers that take the battle online will be able to demonstrate their Worms combat prowess with daily updated stats and leaderboards on the official Worms website.
