Angry Birds 2 launches for mobile gamers

Today marked a major milestone for mobile gaming studio Rovio. The Finland-based company is releasing it's latest version of the Angry Birds, this one aptly named Angry Birds 2. It follows up on the success of many predecessors, from the original to Space, Star Wars and more.

Like all previous versions, it's the tried and true "birds versus pigs" formula. There are a few strange things about it. For one, early levels are intent on telling you where to aim. For another, some levels force you to choose a different bird, You have no choice -- you can't fire until you've done it.

Rovio claims "We’re SUPER excited. Follow Angry Birds on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vine and YouTube during the next couple weeks and you’ll see something a little piggy is going on..."

You can grab the brand new game from Google Play or the App Store. There's a free version, which likely is what most users will want.
