We are extremely grateful to the Angry Birds fans who have shown their love of the brand and this game from the beginning. We understand that this is sad news for many fans, as well as the team that has worked hard to make Rovio Classics: Angry Birds a reality. Rovio Classics: Angry Birds will remain playable on devices on which the game has been downloaded, even after it has been unlisted. Additionally, the game will be renamed to Red’s First Flight in the App Store pending further review.
We have reviewed the business case of Rovio Classics: Angry Birds, and due to the game’s impact on our wider games portfolio, we have decided that Rovio Classics: Angry Birds will be unlisted from the Google Play Store on Thursday, February 23. Now less than a year later, it’s hard to read that as anything more than empty marketing copy in light of Rovio’s tweeted announcement yesterday in which it said:
Matching the gameplay, and appearance of the game next to the original was crucial.” “We know our fans are a discerning bunch and will be able to pick out even small differences. “While we were rebuilding Angry Birds, we took great care to preserve the feeling of the original Angry Birds game,” says executive producer, Sami Ronkainen.
The game was relaunched last spring, after a three-year absence from the App Store with an emphasis on the game preservation angle:

Angry Birds was a defining game of the first decade of the App Store, so fans and game preservationists applauded Rovio in 2021 when it announced that it was rebuilding the 2012 version of the game and relaunching it on the App Store and Android as Angry Birds Classic.
