Flappy Bird is soaring back into the gaming world! Over a decade after its initial release, this iconic game is set for a triumphant return in an expanded edition, slated for Fall 2024. Missed your chance to guide that little bird through treacherous pipes? Get ready for a second flight, with versions launching across multiple platforms, starting with a Q3 2024 release, followed by Android and iOS versions in 2025.
The revival is spearheaded by the Flappy Bird Foundation, a dedicated group of fans who secured the official trademark and rights to the original character. Their commitment extends to securing the rights to Piou Piou vs. Cactus, the mobile game that inspired Flappy Bird. This dedication speaks volumes about their passion for the game's legacy.
This relaunch promises exciting additions, including fresh game modes, new characters, and even multiplayer challenges. While the core gameplay will remain true to the original's simple yet addictive formula, players can anticipate enhanced challenges, revamped progression systems, and a completely overhauled experience.

The original Flappy Bird captivated gamers worldwide with its deceptively simple yet intensely frustrating gameplay. Its sudden removal from app stores in February 2014 left a void, filled only by numerous clones that lacked the magic of the original. Now, the authentic Flappy Bird experience is returning, offering a chance for a new generation of players to test their skills against those infamous green pipes.
Official platform pages are yet to be launched, so keep an eye on the Flappy Bird Foundation's official X (formerly Twitter) account for the latest updates.
