Gah! ‘Angry Birds 2’ is Coming!

Some evils in this world cannot and will not be stopped. The planet-raping bastardry of big business. The common cold virus. The Kardashians. Justin Bieber (who recently added 'gets his scrawny little ass out on boats without warning' to his list of crimes against humanity). And in the mobile gaming world? Angry Birds.

There have been fifteen of these mofos. That's fifteen, right there. Holiday reskins, movie tie-in reskins, all sorts of cashgrabbery. New mechanics have come and gone, but the general bird-slingshottin,' star-collectin' goodtimes remain. And remain. And will always remain, until the end of time/the fifty foot chinchillas from Saturn invade and enslave mankind in the year 4095 (try to look surprised).

Oddly, the newly-announced fifteenth release is the first proper sequel to the original. Yes indeed. It's taken fourteen attempts, but we've finally got Angry Birds 2 on our hands.

What do we know about it? Slim to eff all, that's what. The title is all that has been revealed, though Rovio promise that it'll be Bigger. Badder. Birdier. I've no clue either, but we won't have long to wait to find out. Mobile games being what they are, this one's hitting pretty well immediately: July 30.
