Now Angry Birds teams up with Sonic

Rovio’s Angry Birds is embarking on another brand crossover, this time with Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog.

Characters from Angry Birds Epic including Red Knight, Chuck Mage, and Bomb Pirate will for three weeks be appearing in Sonic Dash which, incidentally, hit 100m downloads earlier this week.

We were thrilled with the opportunity to work with Rovio on this integration,” CTO of Sega developer Hardlight Chris Southall. The expressive, colourful, and fun characters from Angry Birds Epic lend themselves flawlessly to Sonic Dash and really enhance the overall experience.”

The crossover kicks off today.
