Rovio Entertainment and Lucasfilm announced today a new blockbuster entertainment franchise collaboration; Angry Birds Star Wars. Launching worldwide on November 8, the unique partnership will combine all the fun of the classic Angry Birds and Angry Birds Space with the characters, stories and settings of the epic space fantasy, Star Wars.

From the deserts of Tatooine to the depths of the Death Star – the game and merchandise will feature the Angry Birds characters starring as the iconic heroes of the beloved Saga.

"This is the best 'Angry Birds' game we've ever done. It's the best parts of 'Angry Birds' with all new cutting-edge gameplay set in in a galaxy far, far away," said Peter Vesterbacka, the Mighty Eagle and CMO of Rovio. “As a big 'Star Wars' fan myself, I'm really excited about this new universe. The Force is definitely strong with this one."

In addition to the game, this fall will also see the unveiling of a massive retail launch for Angry Birds Star Wars. Merchandise ranging from Halloween costumes and apparel to action figures and collectible plush toys will be available at select retailers, starting October 28.

"Both 'Star Wars' and 'Angry Birds' share the instant and irresistible appeal of hands-on fun,” said Colum Slevin, Vice President, Head of Studio Operations for Lucasfilm Ltd. “People seem to instinctively know what to do when handed a lightsaber or a bird in a slingshot, so this is a natural combination.”

In the coming weeks, fans can expect additional new videos, characters, and much more content to be revealed. The game will be available on iOS, Android, Amazon Kindle Fire, Mac, PC, Windows Phone and Windows 8.

I got it this morning...its probably the best version of angry birds...not just because its star wars (which helps)...but the birds "abilities" and having to deal with things like pig troopers shooting at you, make for a more fun experience.

I'm liking it. Not thrilled that I had to pay to get the "Path of the Jedi" level, but (naturally) I ponied up the additional $1.99. Good game. I like how you can deflect lasers all over the place to solve the levels. Makes it interesting.

I've been slowly trying to 3 star everything (and Ive never done that or cared about it on any other game) So far, I 3 starred the entire first level. The death star and jedi training is much harder.

Same. Although, I'm finding some helpful vids through Google.

Yeah, I managed to get through Tatooine with 3-stars on my own, but I was becoming borderline OCD over some of these Death Star and Path of the Jedi levels. In the interest of my sanity, I needed to get the shortcut from Google.
