Online Worms was a licensed South Korean Worms 2 modification, developed by Mgame Corporation under their former name Wizgate, also serviced in China. Most aspects of the Worms 2 schemes, maps, and user interface were changed, and a constant server connection and Mgame account are required to start it.

Every account had exactly one team it could modify - for local multiplayer, up to three accounts can be logged in at the same time. Each game can choose from a fixed selection of maps and schemes, which were changed by patches. Players were ranked by a set of rings and necklaces.

The game was eventually serviced alongside its successor Worms World Party Aqua.
