Rovio has announced that the Angry Birds will finally be making its first appearance on Facebook on February 14th! It sure took them long enough! When we learned that Google Plus scored Angry Birds for their release, we assumed that the Facebook version was just around the corner. Boy, were we wrong!! Several months later, it looks like Rovio has finally gotten around to porting their game to the 700 million Facebook users.
Judging from the video below, it looks like the birds and pigs have become super deformed. I really like the new look of the characters and the animated backgrounds.
Rovio wrote the following on their Facebook page:
Squawk! Everyone’s favorite furious fowl, Angry Birds, is coming to Facebook!
Nothing says “Happy Valentine’s Day” like competitive pig-popping among friends!
Join in on the fun – mark this date on your calendars, and let’s make this the biggest Facebook Event ever!
Stay tuned for more details!
Nothing says “Happy Valentine’s Day” like competitive pig-popping among friends!
Judging from the last sentence, we are in store for some group/social play on Facebook! The social features coupled with the huge Facebook user base, may make this one of the most important releases of Angry Birds to date.
All of a sudden, we find ourselves looking forward to Valentines day, for once. While we wait, take a look at the teaser gameplay video below to wet your Angry Birds appetite.
