Whether you loved or hated the game, or both in the case of those with “Flappy Bird Rage”, addicts everywhere should get excited about losing hours of their life, once again, to the mobile gaming addiction that is Flappy Bird. While there was always news that the game would return later this year, after being yanked from the App Store virtually overnight, Dong Nguyen has finally given us more than just a rumour, with perspective dates for the release on iOS and Android devices, along with an insight into the content that will be available in the game.
After much speculation since Dong Nguyen ‘tweeted’ that he was thinking of making a Flappy Bird comeback, fans all around the world can now brace themselves for one aspect that has been marked as a definite new feature to the game… multiplayer. Sounds like so much fun, right? I’m going to lean more towards a future of friendship breakups and broken phones. Just take a moment to consider how enraged you were when you JUST hit that pipe and your Flappy Bird Leader Board dreams died right in front of you – now add your competitive nature and your best friend into the mix and we’ll see how many people come out unscathed.
While we’re not too sure yet what exactly the multiplayer mode of the game will entail, the game is bound to hit an all new high of downloads in the charts, even if some sprout simply from curiosity. Whether you’re a lover or a hater or are just intrigued by how such a simply game achieved such great success practically overnight, keep your eyes peeled in the App Store during August for the latest in Flappy Bird fun!
