Worms Battlegrounds
A turn-based strategy shooter that trades the Worms series' silly charm for a slower, more deliberate tactical experience, solid if you want methodical explosions over arcade chaos.
GamerScout Verdict
Best for couch co-op tacticians who want turn-based explosions; skip if you need online matchmaking or arcade speed.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Worms Battlegrounds
Worms Battlegrounds is a turn-based tactical game where you command a squad of worms across small destructible arenas, using a familiar arsenal of guns, grenades, and absurd weaponry to outmaneuver opponents. It's slower and more chess-like than the arcade-style Worms games you might know, which works if you're patient but can feel plodding if you came for quick reflexes. The core loop of positioning, aiming, and watching physics play out is satisfying enough, and the destructible terrain still matters tactically. The problem: it's Xbox-only with a small playerbase, so online matches can be hard to find. The single-player campaign exists but isn't a reason to boot it up alone. If you have local co-op partners and a few hours to kill, it's decent turn-based fun. Otherwise, the mainline Worms games on other platforms are the better pick.
