Rovio launches Angry Birds Go- for Mobile phones

Rovio has officially released Angry Birds Go! for iOS, bringing a 3D kart racing game based off of the popular Angry Birds franchise to mobile devices. The game includes many of the usual bird and pig characters from the Angry Birds series participating in downhill kart races with various tracks and power ups, and also includes the ability to perform kart upgrades. A variety of game modes are present as well, with Angry Birds Go! also bringing support for Hasbro's interactive "Telepods" toys that debuted alongside Angry Birds Star Wars II.

The new game has a free “kart” racer in an Angry Birds universe – similar to Mario Kart. It features popular Angry Birds characters, including Red, Chuck, Stella, and King Pig, option to race as the birds or pigs, special power ups, weapons, and option to choose from a range of game modes - Race, Time Boom, Fruit Splat, Champion Chase and Mega Match.

Another notable highlight of the new game is Telepods – which allow you to teleport your character into the race. You can also include more characters to the game by capturing Rovio "Telepod" toys with your device's camera.

Moreover, Rovio is also pushing the new game as 'first ever 3D Angry Birds World'.

“Jump behind the wheel and start racing - for free! In Angry Birds Go! you see Piggy Island in glorious 3D for the first time ever as you race through speedways, canyons, stunt roads and air courses as your favorite character. There are over 50 soapbox karts to ride, and you can upgrade them by collecting bird coins or making a simple purchase,” says Rovio in a blog post.
