The Ocean release of WormsDC came out in early 1997, shortly before the release of Worms 2. It is believed that only 5,000 copies were sold worldwide.
- The packaging includes a black plastic shell on the inside embossed with the Team17 logo, and with slots for floppy disks or a jewel-Case CD-ROM. This was standard packaging for Team17 games on the Amiga, CD32, and PC in Europe from 1994-1997.
- The floppy disks contain no form of copy protection whatsoever, unlike previous Team17 titles which were subjected to rigorous (but ultimately crackable) copy protection.
- The disk labels are printed directly onto the 3.5" floppy disks themselves - white ink on blue floppies. The design is more or less identical to the original Amiga floppy release of Worms, albeit with the addition of "THE DIRECTORS CUT" printed underneath in a nondescript Helvetica-like font.
This was the last title Ocean published as part of their agreement with Team17.
