We’ve reported on Rovio’s newest Angry Birds game heading our way a few times now and today sees Angry Birds GO finally making its way onto Google Play for free. For those of you who have missed our previous coverage, Angry Birds GO is Rovio’s answer to the kart racing genre.
With that said, you should already have a pretty good idea on how this game plays out if you’ve played any other kart racing style game on any other platform. You’ll have a variety of character to choose from, all from the Angry Birds universe, and then a selection of tracks to race on. Power-ups are littered throughout each track that you can use to take out the competition with.
Angry Birds GO Features:
– FIRST-EVER 3D ANGRY BIRDS WORLD! See the birds and pigs from every angle as Piggy Island comes alive in this rich and colorful 3D world!
