King is trialling a new Candy Crush game

King has soft launched a new Candy Crush game entitled Candy Crush Soda Saga.

This is not a sequel to Candy Crush but a sister title.

At the moment it is being play-tested in Canada, Sweden, Spain and the Netherlands on Facebook and Android.

No firm date has been set for a worldwide launch but MCV has been told that a global release will be happening later in the year.

Soda Saga features gameplay similar to that of Candy Crush. The version of the game available at the moment has 75 levels as well as few new gameplay features.
