After 10 Years of Being Offline, Flappy Bird Is Finally Coming Back
Do you remember the excruciating yet amazing times we all had with Flappy Bird? Well, I surely do. Flappy Bird, the one mobile game that had us all addicted was taken offline a year after its launch by the creator Dong Nguyen. While he said the game was “gone forever”, it now appears Flappy Bird is coming back better than ever by a new group.
Flappy Birdwill now officially be coming back for Android, iOS, and other unannounced platforms in 2025. This is being made possible through a group calledThe Flappy Bird Foundation Groupwhich is a self-proclaimed team of passionate fans.
The Foundation acquired the rights for the game fromGametech, LLCwhich itself claimed it from Nguyen. As it stands, the indie developer didn’t bother defending the rights since as he had abandoned the game altogether.
While not many details are out yet, we do have a nice one-minute trailer that recaps the entire fiasco. Toward the end, we get to see a few glimpses of the new Flappy Bird game alongside the features that will be accompanying it.I AM BACK!!Just a decade ago, I was the talk of the town and soaring to new heights with my 100 million friends.
