Rovio's Bad Piggies Gets Detailed

Rovio's Bad Piggies Gets Detailed

Tirelessly going after those eggs

Written by Matrarch on 28 September 12 at 16:04

Rovio's newest entry into the gaming landscape is, shocking, not another Angry Birds title. Unsurprisingly, however, it is set in the Angry Birds universe. Bad Piggies is a new title from the wildly successful studio that focuses on the lengths the Piggies will go through to claim those precious eggs. We learned the last time Rovio released a trailer that the gameplay will focus on building customizable vehicles to help the protagonists achieve their goal.

In Bad Piggies, players will be treated to more than 60 levels, with an additional 30 levels unlocked by getting three stars. The game also includes four sandbox levels, allowing gamers to create vehicles using the 33 available objects to their heart's content.

Here's a cinematic trailer for the upcoming Windows 8 and Windows Phone title:



Petri Järvilehto, Executive VP at Rovio, had the following to say about the upcoming game:
We’ve never done anything like this. Where Angry Birds was all about destruction, Bad Piggies is all about the joy of construction. It’s not just about getting three stars - in this game, failing is almost as much fun as succeeding!Want some screens? Well, here you go:
Screen 1

Screen 5

Screen 4

Screen 3

Screen 2


While Bad Piggies is already available on iOS and Android, the WP and Windows 8 versions are still slated as "coming soon". As soon as we have the exact date, we'll let you know!

Looks fun! The video reminded up of a children's TV show. I'm surprised they haven't made an Angry Birds children's show yet.
Jump right out of a creek!

Bad Piggies will probably not be released until windows 8 and windows phone 8 are the both available. I'm hoping the game will come out around the beginning of November. Looks great! Still trying to smash 250,000 blocks in angry birds on my WP!

It's funny because it probably won't come out like Angry Birds Space. Rovio doesn't care about WP.
