Meet the Birds in Angry Birds Space

Just yesterday, Rovio released their long-awaited official statement regarding the gameplay of Angry Birds Space, which will be arriving on iOS, Android, PC and Mac on March 22nd. (Be sure to check out that post since it contains a bunch of information about the goings-on in space.) Over the next week, Rovio and Samsung will be releasing “Introductory Videos” feature the birds from Angry Birds Space. These videos can be seen as they come online on the official space.angrybirds.com webpage.

Be sure to check back over the coming days to see all the goodies that Rovio has to offer. As a quick disclaimer, any names appearing in quotes are just placeholders for the time being. As the videos are released, the bird names will be finalized. Thanks to @jake for tipping us off about the early release.

Update: On March 14th, “The Daily” published an “Angry Birds Space Guide” app for iOS. It appears to be free, but we are not aware of any other ports at this time. The app itself is rather interesting, featuring behind-the-scenes videos at Rovio HQ. Also within the article is the official bird and pig names. They have been updated below as applicable. (Note: There is a little discrepancy within the video itself, so these names are still subject to change by March 22nd.) We manually note that the super ginormous pig within the “Cold Cuts” world seems to be named “Fat Pig”.

If you just can’t get enough of Angry Birds Space? Check out these other fine articles, each containing some awesome tidbits about what is to come:

This guide shows you some of the birds features from The Daily which is coming to tommorow in iTunes.

Slim- If you see the video you can actually see some bird’s name?

Looks like it. Very good find. I see:
Lazer Bird
Lightning Bird (formerly Blue Bird)
Ice Bomb Bird
Super Red Bird

Can’t read Big Bro or Black.

Big Bro is Monster Bird I think.

Seems to be “Mega Pig”
I think I see more letters than that, Sal. Though it may be distorted on my iPad. I’ll break out the laptop to check. Also, Black seems to be Fire_____.

Correction: “Mega Pork”?
OK, we’ll go with Monster Bird = Big Brother.
Sal you may be right: “Powerbomb” all one word?

I see Power, all right but confused over bomb. It looks a bit more words than bomb.

I’d say so. It’s don’t see a space there like the ice bomb.

You should add all this to the post including Monster bird and Firestone.

Just a question, if someone or you buys this guide tommorow will you post the content on ABN?

It needs to be purchased, so therefore I will get it, but not post it for free unless slim approves.

Rank: Sling God with 26055 points

@iamMighty that would put ABN in a bad spot for copyright infringement.

Yes, both BirdLeader and I have the app.

I think the birds name are:
super red bird
lighting bird
lazer bird
ice bomb bird
monster bird
powerbomb bird
also the pigs are:
basic pig
helmet pig
moustache pig
king pig
mega pork
thats my opinion

Rank: Sling God with 32120 points
By AMslimfordy (@amslimfordy)

I agree except for the first two pigs. I think I see them as “Large Pig” and “Major Pig” (as in a Major from the Army).

Actually the video does say Basic pig and helmet pig. Their names will still stay the same.

Got the Daily app, looks like they changed the names a bit: (exact names)
The red bird-Red
The yellow bird-Lazer Bird
Big Brother Bird-The incredible Terence
The Black bird-Bomb
The blue birds-The Blues
Ice Bird

Pig names are:
Small and Medium Pigs
Major Pig
Moustache pig
Space King
Fat Pig

By MVNLA2 (@mvnla2)

The Daily comes in IPad and Android versions. For the IPad, the app can be downloaded for free from the App Store, and it comes with a free 2-weel subscription. Not sure if the same is true for Android. Not clear to me if you have to pay extra to get AB guide.

Rank: Sling God with 28590 points
By MVNLA2 (@mvnla2)

It’s free for now on the IPad if you have the Daily app (also free for 2 wks). Does anyone know about the Android? The Daily is also supposed to be available for Android.

You would have to ask BirdLeader, but we are rather partial to our current appearance. We do have a space theme set up on our YouTube page, though.

Um, it’s publicized by every one of our videos, and our YouTube link atop every page. :)

Rank: Sling God with 28590 points
By MVNLA2 (@mvnla2)

Subtlety doesn’t work with me — I need something more obvious — at least a big red plushy thrown at my head ; ). Never occurred to me to click on the YouTube icon at the top of the page. Still don’t see how to link to that nice YouTube page from one of the walkthrough videos…

Click on the YouTube link in the bottom corner of the video, or click on the video title.

By MVNLA2 (@mvnla2)

If I’m the only one who didn’t know about the You Tube page, feel free to ignore this. But, when I click on the YouTube link in the bottom corner of the video, or the video title, I just get the everyday, vanilla-flavored YouTube page, not the neat ABN page with ABOS theme. You can click on the Angry Birds Nest button above the video on the You Tube page, and it does take you to the ABN YouTube page, not back to ABN. Never would have thought to try that.

The Daily’s guide to ABOS arrives on Android on March 21, according to their website.

Rank: Sling God with 28590 points
By MVNLA2 (@mvnla2)

New info from The Daily’s Birds in Space:
–ABs enter wormhole to get into outer space
–They enter phone booth in wormhole and come out with special powers
–Ice bird is entirely new character
–Extraterrestrial who joins up with ABs to save his home planet (Eggsteroid) from the space pigs
–Turns everything within blast radius into ice
–Red bird has super glasses that reveal secrets (like weaknesses)
–Bomb bird’s super power is a heat shock wave that incinerates any combustible material within blast radius
–Incredible Terence – May be able to destroy anything, so more powerful than previously? has monster yell
–Lazer bird goes straight after being tapped (like a laser – not affected by gravity in any noticeable way)
–Fat Pig – Does this pig grow as he is allowed to wander???

Reviews of videos I watched:
–Trailer: As far as I can tell this is just what is on YouTube
–Space Program: Ok, but nothing really new
–Drawing the action: Interesting insight into animation. Weekly shorts focusing on single character
–Music: interesting on how music composed
–Masters of mayhem: Interesting, some insight into gameplay
–Birds-eye view: Not all that interesting
–Space Exploration – Haven’t watched any yet
–What it’s like in space: interesting astronauts comments on space
–Strange attraction: Harvard astronomer talks about gravity – must watch unless you are already an expert
