Flappy Bird is flying back into our lives! Over a decade after its initial release, this iconic game is set for a triumphant return in an expanded form, launching in Fall 2024. Missed your chance to master those frustrating pipes? You'll have another shot, with versions arriving on multiple platforms, starting with a Q3 2024 release, followed by Android and iOS launches in 2025.
What's New in This Flappy Flight?
First, let's talk about the Flappy Bird Foundation—yes, there's a foundation dedicated to the game! This passionate group of fans secured the official trademark and rights to the original character, even obtaining the rights to Piou Piou vs. Cactus, the mobile game that inspired Flappy Bird. That's dedication!
The relaunch promises new game modes, fresh characters, and exciting multiplayer challenges. While the core gameplay remains the same—that addictive, frustratingly simple formula—expect bigger challenges, new progression systems, and a revamped overall experience.

Ready for Flappy Bird's Comeback?
Simple, frustrating, yet undeniably addictive, Flappy Bird captivated casual and hardcore gamers alike. Its sudden removal from app stores in February 2014 left a void, filled only by numerous clones. Now, the original returns, giving players another chance to conquer those infamous green pipes.
Official platform pages are yet to launch, so keep an eye on the Flappy Bird Foundation's official X (formerly Twitter) account for the latest updates.
