We announced back in July that Angry Birds Trilogy was coming to major gaming consoles, and the wait is now over! That’s right, you can now fling birds on the big screen if you have XBox 360, PlayStation 3, or (on the slightly-smaller) Nintendo 3DS. The release is slightly overshadowed by the upcoming release of Bad Piggies, but it is still big news. There is a trailer coming soon, and more can be found info at trilogy.angrybirds.com, including links to purchase.
Here’s what we know immediately:
- This is a single gaming cartridge that contains the majority of levels from the original Angry Birds, Seasons, and Rio.
- The cost is $29.99 USD for 3DS and $39.99 for XBox and PS3. A bit high, but it IS on a massive screen. It should be available at most gaming retailers, both physical and online.
- The game contains 19 episodes at launch: ABo has Poached Eggs through Mine and Dine; Seasons has Trick or Treat through Mooncake Festival; and Rio has Smuggler’s Den through Smuggler’s Plane.
- Mighty Eagle! Available at no additional cost, it appears.
- Achievements! Available for XBox 360, at least. Pretty much a compilation of iOS’s achievements. See the full list on this page.
- Compatibility with Kinect/Move and 3D features.
Some pressing questions:
- How many Golden Eggs there are? (They exist in the game, that’s confirmed.) Do they match our listings? What about some of the that required a tap or click, like the Treasure Chest, Sun, and Danger Above Level Screen?
- Rio also contains its Golden Fruit, but it is not yet known if the Trophy Room is available as playable levels.
- It is not really clear if these games will receive episodic updates (or game updates, such as Space), but it is possible.

I have something to report @amslimforty! Yesterday morning, I started playing this game on my Xbox360, and a game update was available that was a few MBs. I updated it, and some new achievements appeared! They have achievements for 2012 episodes like Piglantis, Birdday Party, and an unknown level called.. Anger Management?! These levels do not exist currently because the game only has Poached Eggs through Mine and Dine, and Trick or Treat to Mooncake Festival! As soon as I saw this, I know I had to report it here. But sometimes I remember that before updates in game center for iOS, didn’t the achievements for the levels come first?
