Worms Rumble, a title that takes the classic Worms formula and turns it into real-time online multiplayer combat, has now arrived as expected on Nintendo Switch eShop. With cross-platform multiplayer also live along with the game dropping on Xbox (it was already on PlayStation and PC) there should be plenty of players around.
It's worth noting that a free update has dropped alongside the launch on new platforms, adding a new Spaceport arena that you can check out at the top of the page.
In terms of multiplayer-focused battle games Worms Rumble has a lot of competition on Switch, though it'll aim to keep players interested with seasonal events and limited time modes.
We're planning a review for the game; it's currently $14.99USD / €14,99 for the standard edition, or $21.99USD / €21,99 for the Digital Deluxe version that throws in some DLC.
Is this on your radar?

What's happened to the good old British pound?
Have this on PS5 and I cannot recommend it. Curious about the Switch version as that framerate chugged in the E3 presentation
@zool Corporate greed. It's roughly the same value as it was 10 years ago (around 1.2 euro).
It uses worms characters, but it's not worms...at all. I have always been a big fan of worms, and have bought most of the games in the series, but this one is a real stinker on my ps4 where I luckily got it for free to learn what it was.
One worm, run and gun.
Lack of local couch multiplayer sadly made this uninteresting for me.
The background is far too busy for my old-man's eyes to keep up.
I'm going plugging in the Amiga.
@doctorhino
I see it positivly, some new Idea.
Just bringing out another classic Worms gets old and there is no need to fracture the Playerbase more and more.
Also as a Dev you sometimes want to make something different.
Its something new and it takes nobody anything away.
Easily the best "Worms" game in years. Nice to see them finally break the 30 year mould and come up with something half decent. It's basically like a giant online version of something like Towerfall
Needs a demo/free trial, or better yet it should be on NSO
I’ll give it a whirl with a demo
Is this online only or can I play offline/split screen style?
Pretty let down. Bad reviews on steam. Seems like a quick cash grab with the Worms license.
This game is going to be dead as a doornail in a month. Just give us a real worms game please
Will only get this on a sale, not gonna waste $15 on this.
@Azuris This ones not for me, but I do still need to check out Worms Crazy Golf, apparently that got excellent review scores.
All I have to say is. Fun fact: did you know that this game has a life span of a day?
@Ghost_of_Hasashi I wouldn't even do that, it still sucks, plus winning a mach is just you running around the map and trying to get kills with unlucky weapon drops.
