Rovio Entertainment has enjoyed a lot of success with their pig-hating mobile game Angry Birds, and while the title has had a number of updates that included new levels to celebrate specific occasions, the feathery friends will launch their sequel today.
Bad Piggies will be available on iOS, Android and Mac and turns the franchise on its head by letting the fans play as the pigs – with all new, never-before-seen gameplay – and not a slingshot in sight. The title will be made available for Windows Phone, Windows 8 and PC later this year.
“There’s a lot of empathy towards the lovable enemies from the Angry Birds games, and we’ve been constantly asked: what about the pigs’ side of the story?” said Mikael Hed, CEO of Rovio.
“Bad Piggies gives you the chance to play as the second-most-loved characters in the Angry Birds universe, and explore this rich world through their green eyes.”
“We’ve had a lot of fun creating a totally new and unique gameplay experience,” said Petri Järvilehto, EVP Games at Rovio. “There’s so much more to these pigs than what is seen in the Angry Birds games, and Bad Piggies is the first glimpse into what’s going on in the imaginative and ingenious minds of the pigs.”
