New Worms Game to Break Strategy Sequence – Released this Year!
Team 17's classic franchise set to evolve.
We have received word that Team 17's next Worms outing will be a break from the classic strategy battle gameplay mechanism that has powered the series since 1995.
The new genre decided for the game - well into development and slated for release before the end of this year - was not disclosed, though an announcement is expected before the end of this month, so stay tuned!

My instinct is screaming RTS. Like Command and Conquer. More of the same I suppose, just a different perspective.
The only other realistic possibility I can think of is a 3D platform adventure.

Dude, I'm betting it'll be Worms karting. It's the easiest re-use of a comic character (Ref: Simpsons, Mario, Crap Bandicoot, Star Wars).
It's the cash-in genre of choice, and after Worms 3D (wrongly) failed to set the cash-registers alight, I'm betting there'll be worms driving around here soon.

I was hoping for that age old game of "hide the worm"

Dude, you are like, totally revleaing yourself as a member of the darkside.
Honourable players do not hide their worms, shuffling about underground in suburban (and terranian) tunnels, with a protective mesh of girders arranged around the entrance.
Honourable players stand on the more prominent prominatory, and shout taunts about the propriety of the opposition's mothers, and the frequency with which they wash. Until it is their turn, at which point hey use a selection of weapons and tools to traverse the complete length of the level (collecting several crates of goodies on the way) and insert an explosive donkey up their competitor's rectal passage, before making a deft ascape from the blast radius.
I fart in your general direction, you evil darksider despot.

Except for American players, eh? Don't they just call in an air strike, and eviscerate every worm in the area, friendly or not.
And isn't their team captain the worm who got least votes, but has most friends in high places?

How about firing your batrope at a overhanging tree branch to swing over the top and accelerate your worm's cart - weeeeee
I wonder what will be classed as darkside tactics in this game? ramming your worm into other players?

I think you're all wrong.
It's going to be going to either be a on-rails platformer in the mould of Pandemonium, called Superworm, or a Gauntlet-style shooter called Invertebrate Breed.
Oo! Oo! I've changed my mind. It'll be a beat 'em up called Body Blows Pink: When Worms War
You just wait and see, and remember who told you!!!
