Angry Birds: Star Wars release date revealed, first details here

Angry Birds: Star Wars mashes up two of the biggest IPs around, and it’s heading to iOS and Android in November. Get all of the first details below.

MCV reports that Angry Birds: Star Wars will launch November 8th and sees the titular birds adopting roles from the Lucas juggernaut.

The red bird is Luke Skywalker by the way.

Rovio has confirmed the game will control similarly to Angry Birds Space and see s players smashing imperial pigs around planet like Tatooine and Hoth. The usual barrage of plushies and merch will follow at launch.

Someone’s about to get very rich. Thoughts?

I’d much prefer Angry Birds: Avian Centipede

You fire them mouth first onto the previous birds anus and keep on going until you miss. Biggest centipede wins obv.

If the end level doesn’t involve firing a Angry Bird into the exhaust port of the Death Star… Well it’ll just prove Lucas has completely lost touch with the franchise!

I didnt think Lucas could sink any lower when I saw C-3PO and R2-D2 advertising for Currys – then he did, when Yoda licked the bum of Vodaphone and now this.

God help us.

I don’t think Lucas believes in Star Wars the way some of the fans do :-/
