Rovio announces Angry Birds Fight! with two unusual trailers featuring Sumo Wrestlers and strange children
So Rovio has announced a new Angry Birds game that will be heading our way soon called Angry Birds Fight! and what better way to announce a new Angry Birds game then with Sumo Wrestlers and strange children right? Right. If you think this is a head-to-head brawler featuring the Angry Birds, which actually would be kind of cool, then we are here to tell you that it isn’t.
Rovio is keeping the Angry Birds train rolling forward with a new release today called Angry Birds Stella POP!. Based off of the morally conscience Angry Birds Stella game, this is a match-3 puzzle spin-off that deals with saving exotic critters. Of course taking out the evil pigs is still a part of the game as well. Mind you it is a bit ironic to save exotic creatures while getting rid of pigs which is also a creature of the world last time I checked.
Rovio is still able to come up with ideas for episodes for all of their Angry Birds games and today the Angry Birds Seasons title is getting one of those new episodes. This time the entire episode is themed after the NBA since the NBA season is wrapping up. The episode is officially called NBA Ham Dunk.
There is a lot of talk lately that Rovio is having a less then stellar time right now with revenue. Many sites including ours have reported on it and it is basically due to the fact that you can only do so much with a franchise like Angry Birds before it gets tired and old. The company has relied so heavily on that franchise that it is now seeing less money than it has in some time. Of course they are still making a lot of money, just not as much as they used to make.
Rovio has pushed out an update today for Angry Birds Space and while this update comes with a new episode, it also comes with an entire new world which adds a ridiculous amount of levels to the game. The new episode is called Brass Hogs and players will be facing off against the villain Hektor Porko.
Rovio is celebrating the fifth birthday of their beloved franchise that literally took the company from being an obscure indie developer studio to a multi-billion dollar brand. Angry Birds has turned 5yrs old yesterday and to celebrate the original game has received a new content update.
Rovio has announced today that the company will only be laying off 110 employees instead of the 130 tht they had originally announced. While some may find this a bit surprising, considering how successful Rovio has been for their first 5-6 years. Some would say the company is still pretty successful and in a lot of ways it is.
[Updated] Rovio announces yet another addition to the Angry Birds franchise called Angry Birds Transformers
Rovio has announced yet another addition to their Angry Birds franchise, this time themed after the world of Transformers. Aptly named Angry Birds Transformers, there isn’t a ton of details regarding this new game but it shouldn’t be too hard to figure out what to expect when it is released.
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Dong Nguyen of .GEARS Studios must be feeling awfully delighted. Rovio, the studio behind the smash-hit Angry Birds franchise, has released a new game called Retry, which bears a number of similarities to Nguyen’s uber-popular Flappy Bird.
