Those Angry Birds will soon be facing the dark side of the Force in the next installment of the popular game series.
Scheduled for download on November 8, the new game for iOS, Android, and computers will see the birds square off against the pigs but in the familiar Star Wars galaxy.
In Angry Birds Star Wars, the birds will take on the personalities of the intrepid heroes, with the red bird assuming the lead role as Luke Skywalker. The evil piggies will be playing for the dark side of the force, taking on the roles of Darth Vader and other galactic bad guys.
"You will see a pig-esque Vader and pig-esque stormtroopers," Lucasfilm marketing VP Paul Southern told USA Today. "They are not Angry Birds dressed up as Star Wars characters," Southern added. "They are characters in their own right."
The new game will also adopt the gravitational hi-jinks seen in Angry Birds Space, USA Today said, with Luke's home of world Tatooine and the ice planet of Hoth both making appearances.
