Angry Birds Friends Roadmap: What’s Hatching?!
Welcome to What’s Hatching?! Here you’ll find what the flock’s been working on, what’s in the slingshot, and some surprises still under the feathers. This is our way of keeping you in the loop with no fluff, just the good stuff.
Now Hatching gives you a nice little peek into topics our team is currently working on before going live, while Off the Nest lists all the updates you already have access to.
Feel free to bookmark What’s Hatching?! for regular roadmap updates from your Angry Birds Friends team.
Keep an eye out for these handy icons:
🥚 – A teaser still hatching before it cracks to reveal what’s inside
💦 – A work-in-progress from our flock of designers and developers
✨ – Community ideas turning into flock-approved game improvements
Now Hatching 🥚
| 🥚 Splash | Squeezing every drop out of summer. |
| 🥚 ’85 | Catch the sunset before game over. |
| 🥚 Cup | This is the moment every bird trained for! |
| 🥚 Red Card Rumble | No refs. No rules. No windows. Read the full story! |
| ✨ Co-created tournament | Thank you for all the dozens of Level Editor towers you shared by the end of 2025. Great material for a new tournament with a date to be announced later! Oh, and here’s a quote from our team: Wow! amazing designs 🔥💕 |
| ✨ Construction Site Signs | In all the PIG chaos, Foreman Pig (the mustache snout) is adding informative construction site signs so the pigs wouldn’t flip the wrong switch. We have a hunch this’ll help the birds way more than the pigs! |
| 💦 Google Play Update | We’re setting up a new way to sign in, save progress across devices, and gather Achievements for Android players! |
| 💦 Ad Video Experience | Ad videos that are difficult to close or risk freezing the game during gameplay have been a cause of frustration. We’re tackling ad videos on multiple fronts, and players will see their in-level ads being turned on and off. |
| 💦 Fun Factor | We’re taking extra time to work on balancing the level of challenge. Now replacing some of our special tournament themes with “fun-factored” regular tournaments. Our big goal for 2026: levels will fit the various playing styles and flinging skills out there, with a learning curve that still offers surprises and aha! moments. |
| 🥚 Top Secret | A top secret project is on the way and all we can share for now is, the birds are waiting for their moment in the spotlight. |
| 🥚 Another Top Secret | The tailwind stopped, but the pigs are still trembling. |
Off the Nest 🐦
| New Switches | Big and bright switches that come in fancy colors are now being added to levels. Based on your feedback, the switches are sometimes difficult to spot, so we hope these new animated switches will be of help! We’re also adding explosive mines to match the switches! |
| Power-up bar relocation | We heard you, and moved the Power-up bar from top to bottom, so it no longer clashes with your slingshot targeting or hides any pigs or other level structures. |
| New Camera | It zooms in and follows your birds in action so you never lose sight on smaller mobile screens. Switch the camera on from Settings > Gameplay > New Camera |
| Web-exclusive Bundles | Are you sitting on a tall pile of Sling Scopes but missing Wingmen? Inspired by feedback from the most experienced players, we released new custom bundles to Red’s Club Webshop where you can pick just the Power-ups you need! |
| Professor Porkscrew’s Piggy-Matic | What a swine invention! A new game mode is out now with potential for endless levels, endless fun, and endless rewards to haul before the next tournament day! |
| Bigger Mobile Birds | Bubbles, Chuck, Stella, Red, and Blues have grown in size. Gameplay stays the same, but with less squinting. Thank you for sending in your feedback; we hope this update makes it easier to tell who is who in the slingshot! |
| Angry Birds Friends WEB | Angry Birds Friends WEB is live globally, and it’s wings-down the best way to play the game you love. Discover all the perks here! |
| Level Editor | Create, stack, and experiment with classic Angry Birds Friends building blocks! Click here for more info. |
| Four Tournaments | The four tournaments are here to stay. We wanted to give players more content each week, and you liked it. Now with greater rewards for the most skilled and active slingers! |
| Power Potion Boombox | Pour your Power Potion over the Boombox and let it fly for the biggest & baddest kaboom ever! |
