Angry Birds Star Wars Hoth Update Out Now!

The Angry Birds Star Wars Hoth update (v1.1.0) is now available for iOS, PC, Mac, and Android via Google Play and the Amazon Appstore. This is the first major update to Angry Birds Star Wars, which was released only a few short weeks ago (this update was teased just yesterday).

After destroying the Death Star, the Rebel Avian Alliance moved its base to the ice planet of Hoth (they later regret this decision, as it’s rather cold). Weary from defeat and hungry for a victory the Imperial Pigs have dispatched probe droids to nearby planets with of hope of discovering the location of the rebel base. Let the battle begin!

This update includes:

  • 20 icy levels! Only a partial release, with the remaining 20 levels being distributed in future update(s). Our Hoth walkthrough videos are live if you need help.
  • Princess Leia! The damsel in distress first appears in Level 3-3, and features a tractor beam to pull heavy items. Officially, it is called a “gravitational field disruptor”. Note that this can be activated from any distance, which makes it extremely powerful.
  • Two new Bonus Levels! There is one new Droid and one new “Star” level. Note that the Star level is unlocked at 385 stars. Also, if you are already beyond that threshold, it should unlock as soon as you earn 1 star on 3-1. See our Complete Droids and Bonus Levels Guide if you need help unlocking or 3-starring any Droid or “Star” bonus levels.
  • One new achievement for iOS.
  • Six new characters to unlock. We will be updating our list as soon as we can.

Thanks to all of you who has helped us with this update! Truly amazing group of players and fans.

That’s true, but you can swipe to find two pages of locked levels, so eventually there will be forty Hoth levels, just like the others.

Two bonus levels, one for number of stars (365/385) and 1 Golden Droid level. There is also, as of now, 1 new achievement called “Fatal Attraction,” for lifting 500 blocks with Leia’s gravitational field disruptor, and a second character page, with six new silhouettes.

One note: for iOS, it hasn’t hit the update page, as of this post, but if you go into another section of the app store, and do a search, you should find it readily enough.

Make that star level number just 385, rather than what I listed above. That’s a sign that I shoulda gone back to sleep!

And we’re now seeing Stella as Leia, using that “GFD Device” the same way as the bubbles back in Seasons: pulling out any structure from its foundations. Only difference: First objects touched would be pulled, but she doesn’t have to be near the said objects for the device’s beam to work. Let’s say it’s sort of like the opposite of Obi Wan’s (Bomb’s) Force, which repels objects away.

A lot of the levels involve pulling out the pig-troopers’ legs, like Luke did in the movies

Looks like Luke is going to be “star bird” of this episode.

Rank: Avian Overlord with 18470 points
By cosmo2503 (@cosmo2503)

If it is harder then DS then it is going to be real chalenge to three stared and get above average. IMO Death Star was even harder then POTJ.

Rank: Avian Overlord with 18470 points
By cosmo2503 (@cosmo2503)

Easier then DS and POTJ, maybe harder then Tatooine. I like episode but I think that Rovio could make some better balance between ground and space levels. I expect that space levels will dominate in next updates like ground levels dominazed in this one. i am actually very courious about space levels they are allways more challenge for me.

@AMSlimfordy — I think there is a limit to the range of Leia’s power: if you tap too far away, you get a pink puff (probably at the limit) and nothing happens.

@mvnla2, I think that happens when you miss the target.

Once again, Amazon is at least a day behind on updates. I should have bought ABSW from Google Play. I can switch on my phone (no choice on Kindle Fire), but will give it a few more days. I still have Path Of Jedi levels remaining to 3-star.

Gotta say I think the AT-ATs are kinda cute. I guess it was on another page that someone made the comparison to Bambi, which is even more obvious after you play with them a bit. Almost (but not quite) hate to destroy them. I think they were enslaved by the evil pigs.

@jen120 Amazon believes strongly in “patience is a virtue”. I thought since ABSW was new the updates would be more timely, but I was wrong again. I have switched all except ABSW and ABR to Google Play. Unfortunately, I do not have a choice on my Kindle Fire. I guess it is such a small part of their business they take their time on the approval or rejection of the Angry Birds updates. They normally don’t release updates until after 5 PM EST, so there is a small chance today yet.

Rank: DaBomb with 495 points
By jen120 (@jen120)

@oldmanbird Now I know. I will switch all except Star Wars since I’ve 3-starred in all levels and I am not wanting to do that again. Since I am new to Angry Birds, I haven’t progressed far enough in any of the other games so switching to Google play won’t be much of an issue!! Thanks :)

@jen120 There is a program called Angry Backup on Google Play developed by Play And Dev (formerly known as Pierrick O’Murphy) that will back up all five AB games. It definitely has saved me on my phone numerous times. Supposedly, it will also back up the HD versions, but I haven’t had time to verify that yet. It covered me when I switched ABO, ABS and ABSp. I like Amazon, but timely AB updates has not been there strong suit as of late.

Mmm, my PC version has a gigantic padlock on Planet Hoth at Chapter Selection Screen. I’ve also checked the software version is 1.1.0 after the update (which supposed to be correct). Someone else experiencing this? Is there any minimum number of stars (or other) required to unlock this episode? Do i need to find the gigantic key for the gigantic padlock? Okay, scrap the last question… :(

Now, that explains it. I’m still working in very early levels of Planet Tattoine. That makes sense. Deathstar Space Station also have a padlock on in my game. We’ve got a long way to go before The Hothie opens up then LOL. Thanks, Slim… ;)

Just watched Star Wars episode V, which starts on Hoth. It’s been a long while since I’ve seen it, so I didn’t remember a lot:
Those ugly black things that are floating are droids sent by the Empire to find out where the Rebellion is located. The AT-AT walkers in the movie are totally ugly, while I think the ones in ABSW are cute. Luke goes to Dag-whatever and meets Yoda; he also finds out that Darth Vader is his father.
