Here’s what we know about the reboot

One of the most iconic games of the last ten years, Flappy Birdis ready to make its grand return to the iPhone, according to reports from a website dedicated to the reboot project. After its incredible success in 2013 and its sudden removal in 2014, the game is about to be reborn with new features and modes, much to the delight of fans around the world.

Flappy Bird was launched in 2013 and quickly amassed tens of millions of downloads. Its simplicity and level of challenge had won over millions of players. However, its creator, Dong Nguyendecided to pull the game from the App Store in 2014. Nguyen explained that the game had become too engaging and, in a certain sense, a phenomenon that attracted too much media attention, to the point of making him feel uncomfortable.

Who does not remember the frenzy of making the little bird fly through the columns of green pipes without crashing it? The gameplay was as simple as it was unnerving: you just had to tap the screen to keep the bird in flight, trying to overcome obstacles and beat your own record.

The Flappy Bird reboot, which will launch in 2025, will introduce not only a new look, but also unpublished characters and new game modes. One of the most interesting novelties will be a mode in which the bird will have to be thrown through basketball hoopsthus offering a new challenge to players.

According to the project’s dedicated website, Flappy Bird will return to multiple platformsincluding the web, and will have app native per iOS e Android. This news will make nostalgics of the original game happy, but will also attract new players thanks to the updated content and new modes.

The relaunch project is led by a group of passionate fans who call themselves Flappy Bird Foundation. This team claims to have acquired the official brand rights and ready to share the game with the world again.
