Activision in conjunction with Rovio and Lucasfilm announce that the mobile gaming sensation, Angry Birds Star Wars, is expected to release on console gaming systems for the first time October 29, 2013. Complete with new levels, features and platform-unique design elements, these new editions will be available for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita, Nintendo's Wii and Wii U systems and Nintendo 3DS hand-held system.

"Angry Birds and Star Wars™ are franchises with millions of fans around the world, and we're excited to partner with Activision to bring the marriage of these beloved properties to gamers everywhere this holiday season."

Iterating on many of the engaging mechanics of Angry Birds™ and Angry Birds™ Space, Angry Birds Star Wars evolves the core game design and hilarious tone of previous entries in the series with new characters, challenges, and environments that pay homage to the iconic hallmarks of the Star Wars universe.
