Angry Birds Transformers, the mash-up of the quirky Angry Birds world and the iconic Transformers franchise, rolled out internationally. As it had previously announced, Rovio Entertainment’s worldwide launch of Angry Birds Transformers for iOS commenced on Wednesday, October 15, 2014.

“With Angry Birds Transformers we created a totally new action packed gameplay experience, where the player gets to jump into action either on their feet or on wheels”, said Jami Laes, Executive Vice President of Games, Rovio Entertainment. “This is of course just the beginning and there’s more to come! As with all of Rovio’s games, there will be exciting updates with new content and features coming in the future.”
