I received this message:「行けることになりやした」. Doing a quick Google search for なりやした,
I found a few phrases like 「新米母になりやした！」and 「遅くなりやした。」

Is it a kind of slang for なりました?

question
grammar slang
Does なりやした mean なりました?
It's used by characters in movies etc. depicting typically edo-period. It's
allegedly how lower-ranking (lower social status) people talked to higher
ranking people in those times. I don't know if this is actually the case, but
that's the stereotype.

When used in today's setting, the speaker is joking.
