Good news, Worms W.M.D [Steam, Official Site] is to gain cross-platform multiplayer and the developers have announced an open beta for owners of the game will start on Friday.
The developers said a while ago they were planning this for an update, so it's fantastic to see them actually deliver on it. A shame it couldn't be released with it.
The developers sure are looking forward to it:
@gamingonlinux We're really excited to unite our players!

The beta will start on Friday 25th of November at 10AM UTC and end on Tuesday 29th at 10AM UTC. You only need to opt-in to the "beta" branch on Friday to be able to test.
They ask that any bugs are reported to their official bug tracker. See this Steam forum post for the full info.
Looks like it could be a good contender to show off in our livestream on Friday, if anyone fancies joining in?
Have many of you played it, if so let us know what you think in the comments.

Yet they fail to remember that on GOG.com there are Linux users too, and as of yet there's still no Linux version available.
Quoting: Avehicle7887...or is it GOG that fails to remember they wanted to sell some Linux games? Their contribution to Linux gaming is kind of... half-baked, if you ask me.QuoteWe're really excited to unite our players!
