 "Kart racer Angry Birds Go hitting iOS and Android on December 11")
Rovio has released a new trailer for its upcoming kart racing game Angry Birds Go. The trailer, among other things, shows us some of the gameplay that will be featured in Go, and gives us a definitive date for when the game will hit Android and iOS devices. The game will be released for free on December 11. It will sport an in-game store for microtransactions. Check out the trailer:
The game is apparently “built from the ground up as a free-to-play title, with a whole host of modes and features included from the get-go.” The wording for the phrase implies that the company might add some more features and game modes as time goes on. While the game is still more than a month away, the tie-in toys made by Hasbro are already in stores. This, of course, includes the new Telepods which made their debut with Angry Birds Star Wars 2.
Telepods will be compatible with Angry Birds Go in a Skylander-esque fashion, where players can keep these figures on a specific stand to get extra in-game content. The Jenga games will also feature codes that give extra in-game content.
This franchise is still alive somehow
Just recently, Rovio released its latest bird-and-pig offering— Angry Birds Star Wars 2—on iOS and Android devices. The game introduces characters from the prequel trilogy, with the main mascot this time around being Darth Maul of The Phantom Menace and double-bladed Lightsaber fame. Along with this, there are also other characters making a comeback, such as the ever-popular villain Darth Vader and the robotic Sith warrior General Grievous. The light side of the Force has characters such as Yoda, pod-racing Anakin and Mace Windu, among others.
The game costs Rs 55 on iOS and is free but ad-supported on Android.
