After 21 years of availability, Worms Armageddon has been updated

Worms Armageddon has been available for over 21 years, and even now the game remains popular amongst its fanbase. Many sequels have come and gone, but many hardcore fans of the series still enjoy this classic. 

Today, Worms Armageddon has received an update, one which will improve the game’s compatibility, add more customisation options for the game, add CPU teams to the title and allows the game to run on Linux through Proton or Wine. 

For users of modern PCs, you will be glad to know that Worms Armageddon now runs flawlessly on Windows 10, supporting a new OpenGL rendering option which may have the game run better than before on your hardware. Windowed mode is now supported, allowing gamers to run Worms Armageddon with hardware that doesn’t support specific screen resolutions. Worms Armageddon is now a lot more accessible. 

Thanks to the efforts of volunteers, translations to Finnish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish are now available. Update 3.8 also brings with it 370 bug fixes, 61 new features and more. 

Higher framerate worms? 

With update 3.8, Worms Armageddon now supports an unlocked framerate, breaking the game’s old 50Hz cap. Movements aren’t interpolated between engine frames, making the game appear much smoother on modern hardware. Want to enjoy Worms on your 144Hz monitor? You can now do that!
   

With this update, Worms Armageddon now runs better than ever on today’s PC hardware, making this classic even more enjoyable. Right now, Worms Armageddon is available on Steam.
