Flappy Bird is set to make a return in 2025, more than a decade after its controversial shutdown. The simple, addictive mobile game took the world by storm in 2014 before its creator, Dong Nguyen, decided to pull it from app stores due to the overwhelming attention and stress. Fans were left disappointed when the game disappeared just nine months after its release.
The new version of Flappy Bird won’t involve Nguyen, but will instead be released by “The Flappy Bird Foundation,” a group of fans who have acquired the game’s trademark. The relaunch will introduce new features, including new game modes, characters, and multiplayer challenges, and it will be available on multiple platforms like web browsers, iOS, and Android.
The game originally became famous for its simple concept, where players guided a bird through obstacles made to look like pipes from Super Mario. Despite its minimalist design, Flappy Bird became a cultural phenomenon, with players sharing their high scores and competing online.
Fans of the game are eagerly anticipating its return, and the foundation behind the relaunch hopes to reignite the excitement that made the game a massive hit. Whether it will reach the same heights as before remains to be seen, but players are ready to dive back into the frustratingly addictive world of Flappy Bird.
The comeback of this iconic game will be one to watch, especially with its fresh updates and added features designed to hook both new and returning players.
