Worms World Party Remastered is an updated release of the 2001 artillery game Worms World Party, featuring native widescreen and controller support.
After two post-release patches, the game was no longer supported by Team17. None of the changes to the codebase that Worms Armageddon had been receiving since 2002 made it to this release.
Currently, the game suffers from a frequent frontend glitch causing black screens or white boxes floating on the screen. Framerates have also been reported as unstable even after the official updates attempting to alleviate the issue. Despite having an online WormNET server, it is deserted due to the sustained popularity and comparatively better codebase of Worms Armageddon.
