Worms 2: Armageddon Expands Launch On Play Store To Most Countries

Posted by in Games, News

After a brief soft launch* in the Great White North, the classic Worms 2: Armageddon has expanded its Play Store presence to most countries (so far as we can tell, at least). It's $5 to get your turn-based explosion fix on, and early reviews of the game on the Play Store look promising. 30 single player missions are included, and there's even online multiplayer (as well as local hot seat mode).

*A 'soft launch,' if you're not familiar with the term, is a way for a developer to test an app's stability, level of interest, and compatibility in a live environment without a high level of risk.

Wondering Why EA's Worms Left The Play Store? New Owner Says EA Was Slacking On Updates, Hurting The Brand

Posted by in Games, News

The original Worms landed on the Play Store way back in early 2011 (when it was still the Android Market), but the launch was far from perfect. Device compatibility was lacking, and force closes all too common. A while back, the game was actually removed from the Play Store.

In fact, it was the Worms franchise's new owner that requested it be taken down. According to Team 17 Digital, EA was "not supporting OS updates," and the company asked for the game to be removed because it "didn't want to damage the brand." Yikes. That's a pretty damning critique of EA's software update support policy, but one I think many Android gaming enthusiasts can sympathize with.
