Angry Birds To Launch on Facebook

Angry Birds To Launch on Facebook

Angry Birds has enjoyed more than 75 million downloads, so it’s about time that the game developer Rovio is expanding the franchise to the Facebook.

The official Angry Birds page on Facebook says that the game will come to the social network in a month, promising to update you on the release if you click “like.” Already 1,260,347 people have done exactly that.

Rovio, creators of Angry Birds, took to its official Facebook page to announce that the game would be coming to the social network in a month, keeping users updated on the games progress as long as they “Liked” the page. At the time of writing, 1,279,024 users have clicked “Like”.

The version for Facebook will somehow leverage the social graph – actually the game developer uses the word “collaborative,” which could have something to do with the translation from Finnish. However, Rovio’s Chief Executive Officer Mikael Hed has said, “there will be completely new aspects to it that just haven’t been experienced in any other platform,” and “the pigs will have a more prominent role.”
