Flappy Bird is soaring back into the gaming world! Over a decade after its initial release, this iconic game is set for a triumphant return in an expanded format this Fall 2024. Missed your chance to guide the little bird through those treacherous pipes? Get ready for a second flight! The game will initially launch on multiple platforms in Q3 2024, with Android and iOS releases slated for 2025.
What's New in This Flap?
First, a quick word about the Flappy Bird Foundation. Yes, there's a foundation dedicated to the game, comprised of passionate fans who secured the official trademark and rights to the original character. They even acquired the rights to Piou Piou vs. Cactus, the mobile game that served as Flappy Bird's inspiration. That's commitment!
The relaunch promises exciting new features: expect fresh game modes, a roster of new characters, and even multiplayer challenges. While the core gameplay remains true to the original, players can anticipate more demanding obstacles, enhanced progression systems, and a completely overhauled gaming experience.

Ready for Flappy Bird's Return?
Simple, infuriating, and undeniably addictive – the original Flappy Bird captivated casual and hardcore gamers alike. Its sudden removal from app stores in February 2014 left a void, filled only by numerous clones that, while enjoyable, lacked the charm of the original. Now, the authentic experience is back, giving players worldwide another chance to navigate those infamous green pipes.
Official platform pages are yet to be launched, so keep an eye on the Flappy Bird Foundation's official X (formerly Twitter) account for the latest updates.
