Studio behind 'Worms' series create first new IP since 2001

The studio behind the blockbuster 'Worms' franchise, Team17 Software, has created their first new IP since 2001, a game called 'Flockers.'
Managing director Debbie Bestwich made the announcement during Sony's most recent PlayStation Open Day.

A more complete unveiling of the title is set for next week, with the Open Day just providing a teaser.

Besides Worms, the last games Team17 put together were on the Dreamcast and PlayStation 2.

"This is the most important game we've worked on in over a decade," Bestwick added. We will update when we have more news.

We tested Roborock Saros 10 robot vacuum for more than two months in order to see whether it is really worth its hefty price tag. The mopping, self-emptying Saros 10 was mostly great, even perfect. But its object avoidance was bit disappointing.

We put the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra through a very, very long review process. The $1800 mopping robot vacuum is almost perfect, but its obstacle avoidance was surprisingly bad, considering the price - and compared to its competitors.
