Rovio announced in a blog post this morning that Angry Birds 2 will officially launch on July 30th. After countless spin-offs and movie tie-ins, it’s about to get its first proper sequel. It seems an age since Angry Birds first rose to prominence as the best-selling mobile game going. You can watch the official gameplay trailer here, if the embedded player doesn’t work, head on over to the YouTube page: It’s free to download and has the expected in-app purchases. As always, there are plenty of pig bosses to wipe out. You can challenge other players and there are even more magic spells too, to help you complete difficult levels.

Some levels now have multiple stages to complete, and you have to choose which bird to launch next. The game retains the key features, in that you fling birds with a catapult in an attempt to destroy blocks and kill green pigs. And now, Angry Birds 2 is available to download. With several official movie tie-ins, including the popular Star Wars titles, Angry Birds is the ultimate success story of the mobile app world. Since the first title saw phenomenal success on the iOS App Store, the game has gone on to amazing heights. Rovio has finally released the long-awaited official sequel to the original Angry Birds mobile game.
