Angry Birds Rio Coming this March, Based on 20th Century Fox Film

by Kevin Krause on January 28th, 2011 at 6:13 pm

Before you go thinking this is an Angry Birds game based on an Angry Birds movie, you might want to look a bit more into the upcoming film Rio. Though the two aren’t directly related, its distributor 20th Century Fox and Rovio have teamed up to combine their bird-themed franchises into a single entity. Coming this March, Angry Bird Rio will offer 45 new levels of Angry Birds based around the characters and events of the new movie.

We’re sure gameplay will be the same as ever, but don’t expect to see any of it in the below trailer that serves only to show us how the Angry Birds made it to Rio and got mixed up with the characters from the film in the first place. We aren’t too interested in the movie, but any more Angry Birds is a blessing we will take without questioning.

    I don’t understand this obsession with this game, just like most movies based On video games it will suck

    Dan obviously lacks reading comprehension……..
    The only thing that the movie has in common with Angry Birds is that it is about birds….
    So Roxio is making a Rio themed version of Angry Birds….
