Rovio brings Angry Birds Goal!'s soft launch to the UK, and other selected countries

| Angry Birds Goal!

Earlier this year Angry Birds Goal! soft launched on mobile devices, and oddly enough not in the usual suspect countries, such as New Zealand and Singapore. Today Britain joins the ranking as Rovio extends its reach that little bit further.

There're few people that don't know what Angry Birds is. Whether the first thing they think of is the original game, its predecessors and spin-offs, and now its movie, it's a mobile classic. Now, thanks to Rovio's collaboration with New Star Games (New Star Soccer: iOS/Android) you can tick 'see birds playing football' off your bucket list as you help the Mighty Feathers rise to the top of the league.

Similar to other football manager games out there, you control most of what goes into your team's career from training up, managing relationships, and ultimately playing the big games. Its one-touch controls make it super easy to play on either tablet or mobile, and it's free to play with IAPs available.

Though I'm not 100% on all of the soft launch locations you can definitely find the game on Android, or on iOS in the UK, Canada, and Australia.
