Our fearless rebels have left the sweltering deserts of Tatooine and headed to a far more ominous place — a fully operational battle station — the Death Star. No, I am not your father, but nonetheless, Angry Birds Star Wars Facebook has been updated with the Death Star episode. The update, which includes the first 20 levels, introduces us to Chewbacca and the Blue Pilot Birds. We also expect to see them very soon in the weekly Tournaments
Important! Angry Birds Star Wars Facebook scores should NOT be entered into the Angry Birds Star Wars leaderboard.
Meet the new Characters
Who will join us on our noble quest to defeat the ruthless Piglactic Porkpire?
- Blue birds = Pilots of the Rebellion
They still have their classic splitting ability, though I think they pack a bit more a punch in this app (probably due to their awesome helmets). - Big Brother bird = Chewbacca (aka “Chewie”)
Big Brother has put on some extra weight … and hair (exercising is tough in space). Chewie has no special ability besides girth and momentum, but he is extremely powerful. Notice how the whole screen shakes when he hits.

Has anyone seen that hoth is there now? It is that small round white planet.
Do you mean in FB or in app?
Sounds good. So have fun playing @all AB Friends Flingers :-)
Let the fun begin. 10/10 for creativity to the developers.
It is great that Rovio is upgrading the Facebook games to the same birds/characters that are present in the AB games for devices. It is also interesting they are changing their attributes a bit that may carry over to the device games with future updates. The frequency of updates and the creativity of the “changes” to the old games and what is present in the new games has been outstanding.
