Nokia and THQ Wireless Inc., a global leading publisher of mobile games, announced the availability of Worms World Party, developed by Team17, for the N-Gage Arena service.
This way, Worms World Party will be playable on various Nokia mobile phones, allowing users to enjoy the fun and popular game anytime and anywhere.

"Worms has always been a great success on mobile devices and the N-Gage technology has allowed us to produce the most advanced, faithful and visually impressive mobile edition of Worms to date," said Adam Comiskey, International VP, THQ Wireless.

"Worms is an excellent fit with the new N-Gage service," said Gregg Sauter, Director of 3rd party publishing, Nokia. "N-Gage is all about fun games that are easy to pick up and hard to put down - which is the Worms experience in a nutshell."

Worms World Party is seriously updated from its initial N-Gage version and comes offering vibrant graphics, allowing gamers to visualize enemy terrain while keeping all of the functionality in a reduced size. Benefiting from N-Gage's 3D gaming capabilities, the Worms game levels provide an enhanced new look, including the funny Worm animation. Moreover, Worms World Party for N-Gage adds the crazy Worms voice taunts that make the game even more enjoyable.

Worms World Party brings six level themes, including the freezing ice caverns, the hot lava fields of hell, pirate islands, an arid desert, tribal rock environments and alien space worlds. Old fans of the game will be happy to find all the classic weapons, including the mighty Holy Hand-Grenade and the red-cloaked Super Sheep.

Up to four players (from anywhere in the world) can compete with one another on N-Gage Arena's Worms, during online death-match games. There are several online options, including matchmaking (to easily find people to play with), a high-score board and a friends list. Furthermore, skillful players can receive N-Gage Points for in-game achievements like retaining all the enemies' Worm crew or destroying multiple adversary Worms with a single move.

Worms World Party for N-Gage will be available in the first half of 2008, but an exact date was not specified by Nokia. However, I'm sure gamers are eagerly waiting for the release. So let there be worms!
