Angry Birds Star Wars, the latest game from the Angry Birds franchise has been launched officially.

The game follows a group of Rebel birds in their fight against the evil Imperial Pigs. Fans will use the Force, wield a Lightsaber, and blast away Pigtroopers on an intergalactic journey from the deserts of Tatooine to the depths of the Pig Star — where they’ll face off against the terrifying Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Pigs.

Colum Slevin (Vice President, Head of Studio Operations,  Lucasfilm): This is the kind of creative partnership that has helped Star Wars remain vibrant and beloved for over 35 years.

With more than 80 levels in locations like Tatooine and the Pig Star, the game features hours and hours of engaging gameplay,  new gameplay mechanics, the ability to level up birds, free updates, and hidden goodies. Fans can also train in the “Path of the Jedi” in-app purchase to become a Jedi Master.

Created as the result of a partnership between  Rovio and Lucasfilm, the game is available on iOS, Android, Amazon Kindle Fire, Mac, PC, Windows Phone, and Windows 8. Game merchandising from Hasbro toys to apparel to plush toys is available for sale worldwide as well.
