Rovio Teases Angry Birds Star Wars Prequel

Rovio has Tweeted an image and promised a 'Big new game announcement' for July 15th with the title in question looking to be a prequel to the Angry Birds Star Wars Saga, presumably based on Episodes I-III of the movies.

It seems we'll be re-living the prequel movies once again with the image evoking the poster for the Phantom Menace which raised so many hopes before subsequently dashing them with Jar Jar and well, most other things about that movie. 

Still, the game will probably be less annoying than the movie even if some of the harder levels are just as frustrating. You no doubt know the Angry Birds drill by now – namely flinging your birds at, presumably, Trade Federation pig-droids before moving onto the Clone Troopers as the series developes. 

We'll find out more on Monday.
