- Flappy Bird returns to mobile devices
- The iconic endless runner now available on Epic Games Store
- Currently on Android, with iOS release planned soon
In mobile gaming history, few titles have sparked as much excitement or debate as Flappy Bird. Launched in 2013, it became an instant hit, hailed as one of the most addictive games ever. Its long-awaited return to mobile through the Epic Games Store is nothing short of remarkable.
The Android version of Flappy Bird introduces fresh content to set it apart from the original. Players can chase high scores in the timeless Classic Mode or dive into new worlds and levels in Quest Mode, with regular updates promised to keep things exciting.
This relaunch steers clear of the controversial Web3 features seen in a previous re-release, opting instead for monetization through ads and in-app purchases for helmets, which grant extra lives.
Flapping Again
More than a decade after its debut, Flappy Bird might feel almost nostalgic compared to today’s mobile gaming giants. It’s hard to believe this simple game once sparked wild rumors, including tales of disputes over shattered high scores.
Yet, its straightforward charm still resonates with players who cherish its simplicity. For Epic Games Store, securing Flappy Bird is a major win in the mobile space. While weekly free games may attract some, this iconic title could truly establish their presence among mobile gamers.
