Angry Birds Christmas to be free upgrade to Halloween edition

Rovio has a free gift on the way for everyone that ponied up the $0.99 for the Halloween edition of Angry Birds. The promised Christmas edition of the super-addictive mobile game will be a free update for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad users. @RovioMobile responded to a query on Twitter confirming that the next edition of the game will come gratis.

Rovio has not yet indicated whether it will start incorporating iAds into the iOS version of the game and giving it away as they have done with the AdMob-supported Android edition. Fortunately, the 7 million Android users helping the birds recover their eggs will be glad to know that the Christmas add-on will not be an iOS-exclusive like the Halloween edition.

The title was a bit confusing, I think you meant "to be free upgrade from Halloween edition", I was thinking "hm, why would they let you upgrade from the christmas to halloween edition?"

Then I read the article so it's all ok :D hahaha

Good to hear, though I don't mind paying 59p for such a good game.

One thing I would like to see Rovio do though is offer these new games as both standalone apps and in-app purchases.

Regarding ads, I'd rather pay the 59p for ad free gaming.

Wow, I practically put my life on hold until I got three stars on every Halloween level. I should just kiss my December goodbye. =)

Thanks Angry Bird people for such a great game.

Bah, very overrated game. Can't believe people still play it, it's gotten so mundane..
