'Angry Birds Star Wars II' Launching September 19 Alongside 'Telepods' Interactive Toys

Monday July 15, 2013 7:24 AM PDT by Eric Slivka

Rovio today announced the Septmeber 19 debut of "Angry Birds Star Wars II", building on the success of the original partnership between Rovio and Lucasfilm.

The new game will tackle the prequels, introducing a wide roster of never-before-seen Angry Birds Star Wars characters. The best part? You’ll get to play with over 30 of them!

At this point we will not comment on rumors or speculation that Jar Jar Binks will be in the game.

Interestingly, the launch will come alongside new interactive toys from Hasbro known as "Telepods" that will allow players to scan the 30 different figures to add them to the game and allow players to customize the birds being fired on a given level.

TELEPODS lets you teleport your figures into the new ANGRY BIRDS STAR WARS II app!

You can also launch your Rebel Bird figures in real life to topple the evil pig Empire.

Collect more than 30 teleport-able figures!

I hate angry birds. Aways have... Always will. It's completely overrated, and I'll never understand why it's so popular. I've downloaded it many times throughout the years trying to give it a chance... but it's just so terrible.
