THQ and Worm’s developer today confirmed a new alliance to bring the popular game to a number of mobile gaming platforms, with the first such game due out in time for Christmas.

Adam Comiskey, Commercial Director of Wireless enthused: "The agreement with Team 17 to develop and publish Worms for a worldwide mobile marketplace is a very exciting opportunity for THQ Wireless. I firmly believe that bringing well-loved and extremely popular PC-based games to mobile platforms will drive next generation phone sales. In Worms, we have an example of a game which is ideally suited for the mobile phone marketplace."
