One of the iconic titles of the mobile gaming world is getting ready to return. Flappy Bird, which made a big impact on Android and iOS in the 2010s, will be reintroduced in mobile stores with a new developer team. So when will the game be released?
New Flappy Bird game will be released for Android and iOS
Flappy Bird, which took the mobile gaming world by storm nearly a decade ago, is preparing to return. The first announcement came for the application, which was removed from the Play Store and App Store by developer Dong Nguyen. It will be re-released with a new developer called The Flappy Bird Foundation.
Flappy Bird, which topped the download charts for a while, actually caused big problems for its developer. Nguyen said that he “ruined his simple life” because of this game and removed the game from all platforms.
By 2024, The Flappy Bird Foundation announced that it had purchased trademarks and game rights to revitalize the game. At the head of the organization is Michael Roberts, who is well known in the gaming world.
The revamped Flappy Bird is expected to be released on web browsers at the end of October. iOS and Android apps will return in 2025 with new game modes, progression features, multiplayer modes. Of course, there will be new characters.
It is not yet known whether Dong Nguyen is involved in the new project. However, the developer team wants to bring Flappy Bird to both old and new players.
