“There’s only one thing more dangerous than a worm with a big gun, and that’s three Worms with big guns,” said Nick Clarkson, Team 17 Marketing Director. “We’re over the moon to see these three titles buddying up on one disc and heading to retailers, and unless your heart is completely cold and wormless, I reckon it’s a fairly irresistible proposition.”
Here’s what gamers can look forward to in the Worms Collection:
Worms
The beast that started it all, Worms was originally released for a legion of now defunct hardware platforms back in 1995, and since 2007 has found armies of new fans with releases on Xbox Live, PlayStation Network and iOS. In the game, teams of worms fight to the death using heavy artillery in turn-based battles, with the last worm standing declared the winner.
Worms Ultimate Mayhem
First launched in 2011 for PC, Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, Worms Ultimate Mayhem is a turbo-charged reworking of Worms 3D and Worms 4: Mayhem, loaded with more of everything from customisation options to missions, and presented in 3D.
Worms 2: Armageddon
Released in 2009, with versions released for Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, the sequel to 1997’s Worms: Armageddon ups the ante with the return of fan favourite weaponry, brand new armaments, bags of customisations options, fancy new physics, and much, much more.

The Worms 2: Armageddon Mayhem Pack is a free downloadable content pack released to celebrate the forthcoming release of Worms Ultimate Mayhem on PlayStation Network for PlayStation 3. The DLC pack features 3 new landscape themes (‘Wild West’, ‘Jurassic’ and ‘Arabian’), 3 new hats, 3 new speech banks and 3 new gravestones, all based upon some of the content that is coming soon in Worms Ultimate Mayhem.
Originally planned for for release along side the PC and Xbox 360 version at the end of 2011, the Playstation 3 version of Worms Ultimate Mayhem was delayed and a release date has yet to be confirmed.
Team 17 wrote on its Facebook page: "This is a message for all those PS3 users who are patiently waiting for Ultimate Mayhem to be released. We know we said that we expected it to be out before the end of last year and that was what we tried to do, but we had a couple of issues that we needed to sort out which meant that we didn't hit our expected release date and for that we would like to say sorry. However, we are still working on the game and we expect to have a new release date very soon. Thanks again for being patient."

Worms Ultimate Mayhem ups the ante by providing more options than previous titles, with over 100 customisation items. Players can customize what their worms wear, with a huge selection of silly hats, hands, gloves, moustaches and glasses available, and also what gravestones and speech banks the worms have.
The game modes are also highly adjustable, enabling players to tailor the individual game settings to their own tastes. There is also a ‘Wormpot’ feature, which allows even further game style adjustments, with over 1,000,000 possible combinations. Players can even create their very own Machiavellian weapon of mass destruction in the ‘Weapon Factory’; decide how it is launched, what effect it has and even what it looks like.

Team 17's head of design, John Dennis explains “"With a massive 60 single player missions the game has a single player experience to entertain and test the mettle of even the most destructive "Worms" fan. Set across 5 distinct historical time periods, the main campaign takes the player on a time-travelling caper, from Jurassic swamps to the marvelous castle towers of Camelot. Each mission features comical intro sequences, all-new audio and each historical theme book-ended with a full-motion video sequence to advance the story. As the player completes these missions, further single player missions then unlock for even more 3D dimensional destructive action!
"And as if that wasn't enough, we have also introduced a helpful new aiming utility, the ‘Binoculars’, and enhanced the missions with gameplay refinements to make them more accessible and rewarding. Whilst the inclusion of a diverse collection of challenge modes sees players needing to hone their skills using the Parachute, piloting the Jetpack, aiming with the Sniper Rifle and steering the Super Sheep if they want to write their names in the Worms Ultimate Mayhem hall of fame.
Worms Ultimate Mayhem will be released later in 2011, for PC from Steam, for Xbox 360 from Xbox LIVE, and for the PS3 from PlayStation Network.
