The Angry Birds are going racing

Electronic rectangle users! We have received word that a racey, karty 3D Angry Birds Go! will soon be dominating the increasingly limited attention span of every commuter in Briatin. And it'll be completely free to play.

Those who spend their waking hours peering at said electronic rectangle to the exclusion of girlfriends, wives, food and other key elements of Real Life (TM) will be pleased to hear it features a smorgasbord of modes and features. You can go head to head with your chums in anything from homespun soapboxes to supercars, apparently. And you get to take full advantage of a full range of big-air freestyle tracks and downhill races. And kill pigs, presumably.

The game'll be available on iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8 and Blackberry 10 on December 11, but if you can't wait till the official release of what may be the most popular racing game of the year, download the special countdown app at the end of October. In the meantime, here's a gameplay trailer.
