Rovio Has Been Working On The Facebook Version of Angry Birds For A Year

 

Angry Birds has toppled competitors on the iOS and Android leaderboards. But can it do the same on Facebook?

In an interview, Peter Vesterbacka, from the game’s maker Rovio, stressed that the company is taking a very deliberate approach with bringing its smash hit to the Facebook platform. It’s been working on the game, which is set to launch in May, for about a year and it’s one of the largest internal projects in the company.

The title will have new social and viral mechanics and likely extend the company’s experiments with virtual goods.
