Worms Crazy Golf has been announced for the PS3, PC and iOS.

The Worms spinoff is described as a "brazenly bonkers mixture of classic 2D Worms and hilarious 18-hole high-jinks".

The game is set across three 18-hole golf courses and features a range of skill-based challenge modes.

Power-ups and obstacles include castles that teleport your ball, cannons that shoot it across the landscape and obstructive comedy bats.

Speaking about the game's multiplayer, Team 17 designer John Dennis said: "We've had a great deal of fun playing the game in multiplayer during development, and with four-player social multiplayer support, it has all the hallmarks of the Worms brand.

"The trash-talking, pressure to make the shot, terribly unhelpful 'advice' from opponents, and often hilarious consequences when that risky shot that could have won the game goes terribly wrong."

Worms Crazy Golf will be released later this year.
