Firstly, don't mind the presidental meme. I just thought it was a neat little tie-in to the devlog because today is Inauguration Day in America. With that out of the way, let's begin, shall we?

v0.8: "A new beginning..."

After about a little less than a year after cancelation, I decided to bring back what might be my most notorious game yet. Why would I do that? Well, to make it not notorious; to redeem itself; the rehatch it before the true rehatching. I made the choice to cancel this game due to my ignorant actions — deleting all my progress for a different v0.8. All that remained of that old update was a battle engine, the Blues and Matilda's models, etc. And then I had an idea... Which I don't know how to explain, but I'll explain it in the best, yet simplified way:

BRING BACK ANGRY BIRDS EPIC 2!

Long story short — I I'm bringing back Angry Birds Epic 2.

Everything coming in v0.8

• Reworking almost everything

  • New battle engine, named "Flocks-Of-3"

    Can you guess what's included? That's right, battles involving three Birds/Pigs, three enemies, and the full EPIC experience

  • New Map of Piggy Island

  • Somewhat rewritten story

  • Reworking other stuff, etc.

• New playable characters

  • The Blues (Jake, Jay, Jim)

  • Matilda

  • Pigiana Jones

  • Eleanor (Valkyrie)

  • Banshee

  • Piggy Mc'Cool

• New levels

  • Cobalt Plateaus region

    • Matilda's Garden (end reward: Matilda)

  • The Mountain region

    • Golden Rogue's Post

    • Moardor Tower of Mauron

    • Road to the WizEagle Tower

  • New Dungeons

    • Star Reef Cove

    • The Shadow Pig's Basin (end reward: The Blues)

    • Frostbitten Cavern

• New Enemies

  I'm not listing them all! But, FYI, most of them are reworked!

• New Bosses

  Plus a bunch of reworked bosses, too!

  • The Golden Rogue (miniboss)

  • Hamdulf the Green

  • The Hammit (miniboss)

  • Vengeful Monty

  • Zeta

• Return of the Arena

  And this time, it won't be the whole update! Nor did a single person ask for it in the slightest but WHO CARES ANYMORE!?

  • Reworked stuff

  • Arena gamemodes

    • Banner Brawl

      PvP | 3v3 | Destroy the enemy banner

    • Duel

      PvP | 1v1, 3v3 | Defeat the enemy team

    • Gale's Gauntlet of Gold

      Ran and held by Queen Gale herself!

      PvE | 1–3v1–3 | Defeat all the enemies

  • Widescreen support

  • Achievements

  • Heck, maybe even an exclusive character!

And as for the future updates...

• v0.9: Elites, Events, and the End

  • Elite classes for Red, Chuck and Porky

    Elite classes are basically highly expensive, yet F2P-friendly upgrades, unlike the elite classes from Angry Birds Epic that required Lucky Coins or real world money

  • Seasonal Events

  • The final levels — The Ice Tower, and Hell

  • Devilicious Wizpig, the final boss

  • The true end of early access

• v1.0: FULL RELEASE!

  • Elite classes for Bomb, the Blues, and Matilda

  • The last major update

And the best part — I guarantee ALL of this will be in the final game. No half-assing or laziness this time! Mark my words, people! Mark my words...

Well then, I'll be "posting" more frequently on my "dead" ALT account because of this. But is that really a downside? No, not really. Anyways, without further ado...

Until nest time, Birds and Pigs alike!
