New info! The sixteenth episode of Angry Birds Seasons will be called Abra-Ca-Bacon and will land on Thursday, May 16th, theoretically (approximately) simultaneously for iOS, Android, PC, and Mac! The update will include 30 normal levels and six bonus levels (likely 3 unlocked by accumulating a certain number of stars, 1 similarly for feathers, an in-game Golden Egg, and a 3-star “Big Item”). We also see exactly how portals will act, and it looks really awesome! (Play Cut the Rope or Super Stickman Golf 2 if you want to see similar contraptions.)
For more information, see our original post. There’s a lot of information…
PC update. I am happy that whatever the bug was, it will have been sorted out by this update, hopefully. Good news for PC users:D
Yes, I’m very happy that we will get update on same day :)
YAY!!! Finally we Pc’ers get it too. YIPPIE!
I’m glad we PC users will finally get an episodic update. Also glad it looks like they fixed whatever the bug was. Hopefully we (PC users) get the other updates soon as well.
Good for me!
Wow, looks like the best update ever:D
^ this
I hope we’ll have at least 30 levels…
Yes, 30 levels + 6 Bonus levels :)
Looks like we’ll have teleporting levels! I’m really exicted about this :-)
Yes I agree. I sent a letter to rovio for five month ago asking for portals. And now I am really happy!
I don’t levels will teleport. Or will we find Seasons levels on Star Wars from here on?
I meant the teleporting (portal) is inside the level not the level is teleporting :)
Just as the post says, it’ll be like Cut the Rope. I point to the operation of the Magic Hats or Lanterns in that game, which the above video seems to support.
Very cool, indeed! I like how those operate, it keeps you on your toes.
I’ve been waiting for a release date for the Seasons update, and it’s finally here.
Lucky you.
Wow! PC will get update on same day? Dreaming? Nope. And, does anyone think Rovio cloud sync will land is Seasons with this update?
Good question. I don’t think they’ll add it this update because it apparently is not ready to go live (judging by the fact that they keep removing it).
According to my AB knowledge,
Portals are one of the biggest changes in Angry Birds History !
Portals look fantastic! Going to be loads of fun figuring out how to use them best.
@Aman — I think the Space and Star Wars had an equivalent amount of new gameplay — You’re just getting jaded.
Sorry, I forgot about ABSp and ABSW :D
Looks like, Portals is major change in just AB Seasons.
Awesome! Having played CTR and SSG it clearly gives a idea how great this update is going to be. Just taking a look at the trailer makes the whole game look good!
Abosloutly cracking. Been waiting so long for the PC updates and it looks like Rovio have made it well worth the wait. Roll on Thursday.
AB Seasons updates always delivers great, but this time it looks like Rovio has outdone themselves!! I can hardly wait, wish there was a portal to may 16th :D
Believe me, my 2yr old cousin started laughing seeing the first part of pig being tricked with fork and portal! That was realy funny
My 6yrs old brother laughed too. The frist part was realy funny and the music sounds great
With the portals, this update ia gonna be great and tricky too. Wonder how many golden eggs it will have.
Anyone notice the Pig wrapped up in chains and a cage at #0.47, he is a bit bigger than the other pigs, maybe he is Fat Pig from AB Space, or maybe he is Houdini Pig???
@AngerManagement Not like Fat Pig in ABSp but seems different to me also than others pigs. And why he is wrapped in chains and cage?
He’s an escape artist pig! He could be named Pigini! Lol ;)
Maybe he’s a boss? (I can just hear, Angry Birds VS The Great Pigini!)
Finally happy that the update is coming may 16 because it will be 6 days till my birthday.
So you have your first Birdday Present :-)
Can’t wait seeing the New Update. The Name of Summer Episode sounds very interesting. I will kill this Green Piggies soon :-)
Yeah, lucky for me!
Yes the Update sounds Lucky. It will be much fun to Play :-)
Can’t wait.
This update looks sick!! It’s things like this that make Seasons the most solid app in the franchise.
Looks sick indeed! Can’t wait to take on the challenge of those portals, I think it will be a lot of fun figuring them out. Just another reason why I love Seasons.
This is gonna be fun! Wonder if they had issues getting through QA with all the new features…Winter Wonderham was a while ago! Kinda makes me wonder what they might have in store for Space since it has been quite a while since the last update there too…
@burbman It’s been forever since Pig Dipper. Maybe we’ll see portals in Space! :)
that looks awesome!!!!!!!!
Yes, it is and the portals are cool.
I agree. They look great and it appears to be a boat-load of fun to play. Especially like the one the train goes in and comes out in pieces. What a new type of playing strategy to make for Season. Rovio has peaked our interest and excitement yet again.
It looks MAGICAL!! Perfect
First time update at same day. Portal will make some level getting crazy.
Wait,… 6 bonus? 3 for collect star, 1 for feather, 1 GE found in level and last is 3 star level?
Sounds exactly right to me @PJng
So… what’s happened to the Circus update?
Or.. is this the “circus” one?
Magic / Circus. Seems to go hand in hand to a degree.
Ah.. gotcha. So.. just a few last min changes then.
Cool.. looking forward to this.. and yes, thank you Rovio for the PC addition to the update being released alongside mobile.. it’s appreciated!
This will definitely present more of a challenge if portals are involved.
This update looks awesome! Can’t wait until the update comes out.
Yay, finally a date for the update! Can’t wait!
The video looks promising. Poor little piggy got stabbed with the fork from behind ;-) These portals look like great fun
I am exited and scared at the same time. The portals look amazing, but also frighten me. So far my love for Seasons (and ABO) was based on it simplicity and grounded feel. Space and StarWars could not tickle my box in such way because of the sometimes complex strats needed. So scared this new addition will make me run, but so exited at the same time :D
Going to watch the teaser again in awe! Amazing job Rovio!
Really? Interesting, I enjoy having the new physics challenges in AB!
@E-Star – I feel exactly the same way. ABO, Seasons & Rio are simple ’cause there’s no gravity fields or else, but yet you need to think about what method should be used and also need to find the spots where to hit, but maybe I love those just because of the simplicity :D I like SW, mostly ’cause there’s still some of that simplicity left. Space is totally different and it’s been really hard for me and I still haven’t completed all the episodes in it.
Anyway, the teaser looks amazing and I’m ssoooo looking forward to this update! Yay, it’s tuesday already! :D
I like challenges, and the portals seem to be made just for me :)
Yay! Can’t wait!!
AWESOMENESS!!! I will LOVE this update! I also noticed that this is their first pun on a title that has “bacon”.
I wonder if there will a glados mighty eagle! (From Portal)
If so, then that would be very cooool!! But it may be difficult to get 100% Total Destruction from Portals :D
@pirateriley1 — There is a Mighty Eagle in Seasons (at least for IOS). Not sure what you mean by “glados”?
OK, so I’m showing my age again. Just Googled glados in the off chance it might be a word, or close to a word. For the rest of the older generation — GLADOS is a very popular character in Portals, a popular computer game. It’s and interesting idea that they might create a special Mighty Eagle for this episode, like they did for Year of the Dragon.
Just noticed that pirateriley1 mentioned Portals (was that there before?). But if so, it went totally over my head.
Yeah, but mighty eagle doesn’t a antagonist character :)
Mighty Eagle could never be as mean as GLADOS is. (ok, maybe he could, but not against the Birds)
Isn’t this a bit late for an update?
A Golden Egg at 0:52!
I don’t see anything.
Below the slingshot..when white bird launches. Time stamp 53s for me.
Here:

Thanks! Split second… My eyes aren’t that good anymore.
wow nice catch! :)
Well done! Mighty Eagle’s eye :)
wow! Very good eye.
Hmm not quite sure what “season” this represents ? It looks a little confusing..i guess i feel kinda like E* exited but a little scared..guess i will check out cut the rope to get a better feel of it..thanks abn team for always keeping is informed and ahead of the game:)
