If you are one of the ardent Angry Birds followers and an Apple follower, you would have received an email from Apple telling you about today’s App Store Spotlight featuring Angry Birds Transformers. And you can download it in the App Store today free.
Starting from the 15th of October, Rovio began the roll-out of Angry Birds Transformers mobile game beginning with the Apple App Store. The Android version will be available on Google Play on the 30th of October and on Amazon on the 4th of November.
Angry Birds Transformers combines the quirky Angry Birds world with the iconic Transformers franchise.
With an edgy 80’s vibe, Angry Birds Transformers brings a humorous twist to the beloved Transformers characters. Angry Birds are disguised as robots in disguise when Eggspark plunges to Piggy Island changing the pigs and the eggs in its wake. The Autobirds and the Deceptihogs will have to join forces to prevent the rioting EggBots from wreaking havoc!
“With Angry Birds Transformers we created a totally new action packed gameplay experience, where the player gets to jump into action either on their feet or on wheels”, said Jami Laes, Executive Vice President of Games, Rovio Entertainment. “This is of course just the beginning and there’s more to come! As with all of Rovio’s games, there will be exciting updates with new content and features coming in the future.”
“We had a lot of fun working with Rovio to develop the Angry Birds Transformers characters, ensuring they captured the comedic side of the Angry Birds personalities while staying true to the heroic Transformers characters,” said Jonathan Berkowitz, Vice President Global Gaming, Hasbro. “We think fans worldwide will really enjoy this fun, new Transformers universe, mashed up with the Angry Birds world – it truly is ‘more than meets the eye’.”
Rovio, in collaboration with Hasbro, has also developed the Angry Birds Transformers TELEPODS gaming platform which will fans to teleport their favorite characters directly into the game, bridging the digital and the physical play experience – and yes, the toys do change form!
