'Angry Birds Transformers' Trailer Hints At Tower Defense For 15th October

Share this article with your friends.

A new teaser trailer for Angry Birds Transformers recreates the original 80′s cartoon show in Angry Bird style and confirms a 15th October release date for the game. It also hints at some possible game-play.

Not only is this a cute way to get attention of their potential customers who have a sentimental attachment to the TV show and toys from their childhood it also seems to suggest a Tower Defense style game.

الطيور الغاضبة تحوّلت إلى مقاتلين آليين
قامت مؤخرة شركة روفيو (مُبتَكِرة لعبة الطيور الغاضبة)، بالتفكير حول هذه النقطة، وبدأت العمل جاهدة عليها، حتى وصلت إلى أول نسخة من لعبتها الجديدة

هذا التطوير أدى إلى اختلاف طريقة اللعب فبدلا من الانطلاق بالمقلاع والقذف وما إلا ذلك، تم الانتقال إلى مقاتلي شخصيات المتحولون، واطلاق النار والصواريخ بشكل أكثر تسلية وتفاعلية من ذي قبل

وتتميز اللعبة بإمكانية مشاركتها مع أصدقائك للعلب معاً ، وبدأت هذه اللعبة في فنلندا ونيوزيلندا، في حين ستكون متاحة لبقية العالم في تاريخ 15 أكتوبر من هذا العام على متجر أبل، وفي تاريخ 30 أكتوبر على متجر جوجل

Firstly, by appealing to older players it would suggest that there will be a substantial challenge to proceedings this time, perhaps less child centric than Angry Birds Go! Then there is the appearance in the footage of different cannon towers which seem to suggest that this Angry Birds game will be in a tower defense style.

Certainly, having just had a more traditional (projectile-centric) game in the form of Angry Birds Stella it would be a good time to diversify the experiences on offer. This is, of course, conjecture as we have so far seen no clear game-play for the Transformers game (although we have had quite a few images of the toys and merchandise that will accompany the title).



These toys aren’t just window dressing but will function to unlock characters and other items in the game by placing them over the camera of your tablet or smartphone device. These “Telepod” toys work in a similar way to Skylanders or Disney Infinity figures. Whatever the style of game-play Angry Birds Transformers offers it will need to incorporate the robot and car transformations already seen in toy form.


Rovio were similarly tight lipped about the game-play element of its recent Angry Birds Stella game too. With this in mind it may be some time before we see game-play for the Transformers game. One thing the new trailer did confirm was a clear launch date of 15th October for Angry Birds Transformers so not a long time to wait.
