Worms 2! It is back! And now you can frag each others worms til you’ve run out of dynamite. All thanks to Worms 2 Plus by frag-net.com fellow Carl Norton and the help of the larger online community.

You’re now able to play it again in multiplayer (without port-forwarding when playing via IPX!) and get a bunch of extra enhancements to boot. For example, the in-game editors have been enhanced. They already were the best in the series, but now fixes and advanced editing capabilities from the ‘Des patch’ have been ported over. In addition, soundbanks from other regions and higher quality music have been included as well.

If you’re unfamilar with Worms 2, it was released in 1997 only on Microsoft Windows and was pretty successful there - which prompted Team 17 to make a streamlined version that could be ported to more platforms. That game became 1999’s Worms Armageddon.

While Armageddon is a damn great game (because it’s basically Worms 2), staff always felt that its predecessor had many more options to play with and deserves just as much love.
