In a joint statement THQ and Team17 have announced that development is underway on a Worms title for PSP and Nintendo DS. Few details are known about the handheld versions, including a release date, but what is perhaps more interesting is that the franchise isnât being published on the handhelds by Codemasters, who are set to release Worms 4: Mayhem at the end of the month on the home consoles.
Peter Dille, Senior Vice President, Worldwide Marketing, THQ said "The Worms brand is a huge global phenomenon shipping over 9 million units to dateâ¦The pick-up-and-play gameplay is an ideal formula for the PSP system and Nintendo DS formats and will enable THQ to extend our leadership position in the handheld sector."
"Team17 is excited and delighted to bring Worms to Nintendo DS and the PSP system in conjunction with THQ," said Martyn Brown, Studio Director, Team 17. "Both of these new systems represent exciting new handhelds capable of delivering unique experiences both in single player and using the exciting wireless multiplayer capabilities of the platforms. We are developing incredibly addictive new versions of our classic game for existing fans of the series and newcomers to the world of Worms. It's time to dust off the Holy Hand Grenade and unleash some more exploding sheep!"
Weâll have more details on the Worms handheld titles shortlyâ¦
