- A new version of Flappy Bird is now available on the Epic Games Store for Android, but it doesn’t have anything to do with the original creator.
- There was evidence ahead of launch that it would have crypto elements, but the final game is monetized via ads and in-app purchases.
- This new game comes after a group reportedly filed to terminate the creator’s trademark and then grabbed it for free.
Flappy Bird was a sensation upon its launch over a decade ago before creator Dong Nguyen pulled the mobile game. However, you can now play a version of the title once again as Flappy Bird has just landed on the Epic Games Store for Android.
Flappy Bird is a free-to-play title on the Epic Games Store, and the team behind the new game says it lacks cryptocurrency integration — at least on Epic’s storefront. The assertion comes after web pages related to the new game hinted at dreaded cryptocurrency and Web3 integration last year.
