It’s joined by the Xbox One debut of the Worms franchise, Worms: Battleground.

Worms: Battlegrounds brings friends and families together in the noble pursuit of self‐improvement, world domination and exploding sheep. Worms™ Battlegrounds is the biggest and best Worms game to date – more worms, larger landscapes, more dynamic water, more weapons and more customisation items than ever before. It features beautiful high definition 3D visuals (but still retains the classic 2D gameplay) with new lighting effects, new features to help users interact socially, exciting additions to improve the single player experience, and more of everything a Worms fan could want.

Murdered: Soul Suspect ($59.99)

Team17 has announced Worms: Battlegrounds, their first title to be released for the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One. The developer’s franchise has appeared on 25 other platforms since it first debuted in 1995, and now it’s about to join next-gen consoles.

Team17 will be one of the first studios to self-publish through the ID@Xbox program with Worms: Battlegrounds. The game is due sometime in 2014 for both PS4 and Xbox One; however, if this is the Worms game Phil Spencer mentioned on Twitter (and it likely is), it’s due out on Xbox One in March.
