Angry Birds Star Wars is now available on modern Android devices thanks to fans

The people are finally doing it

Since Angry Birds Star Wars is an old game, it was made with 32-bit systems in mind. It was never updated to be 64-bit compatible, so following the delisting in 2019, the game was only playable through sideloading. Overtime, as 32-bit supported was completely dropped on modern Androids, this game and several other classic Angry Birds games became very annoying to play if you didn't own an older phone. For the longest time, you had to use workarounds like virtual machines – but not anymore.

Thanks to the work of the folks over at Angry Birds WebPit, Angry Birds Star Wars is now fully playable on the latest Android devices. I tested it out, and it works beautifully with full widescreen support – it's all quite impressive stuff.

That's not where the fun ends though, as several other improvements have been made:

  • Exclusive episode from the console version ported
  • Achievements added
  • Collecting Mighty Falcons is now easier
  • Music is now uncompressed
  • Other various tweaks and improvements

Overall absolutely phenomenal work, and now the intergalactic Angry Birds adventure can be enjoyed for generations to come. If you want to download it for yourself, join the Angry Birds WepBit Discord server and visit the #⁠releases channel.
