Flappy Bird is flying back into our lives! Over a decade after its initial flight, this iconic game is set for a grand return in Fall 2024, expanding beyond its original form. Missed your chance to master those frustratingly addictive pipes? You'll have another opportunity, with versions launching on multiple platforms in Q3 2024, followed by Android and iOS releases in 2025.
What's New in This Flappy Flight?
First, a little backstory: The Flappy Bird Foundation—yes, there's a foundation dedicated to this beloved game—secured the official trademark and rights to the original character. They even acquired the rights to Piou Piou vs. Cactus, the mobile game that inspired Flappy Bird. That's serious dedication!
This relaunch promises new game modes, fresh characters, and even multiplayer challenges. While the core gameplay remains the same—that simple yet infuriating tap-to-flap mechanic—expect bigger challenges, new progression systems, and a revamped overall experience.

Ready for Another Round of Flappy Fun?
Simple, frustrating, and undeniably addictive, Flappy Bird once captivated casual and hardcore gamers alike. Its sudden removal from app stores in February 2014 left a void filled by countless clones, but none quite capturing the magic of the original. Now, players worldwide will get a chance to once again navigate those infamous green pipes.
There's no official website yet, so follow the Flappy Bird Foundation's official X (formerly Twitter) account for the latest updates.
