Rovio today announced that the pigs that have been bombarded (for good reason?) for nearly three years by the Angry Birds will now have their chance to take the fight back to the birds. In Bad Piggies, players will finally get the chance to play as the pigs. And there will not be a slingshot in sight.
“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.”
Bad Piggies will be released on September 17th for on iOS and Android devices as well as the Mac. Windows Phone, Windows 8 and PC versions will follow shortly.
