Latest big name to list on the Huawei Apps Platform

Huawei, the leading global technology company, has announced the launch of Angry Birds 2, the hugely popular game from developer Rovio, on the rapidly expanding AppGallery. This is the latest move onto the platform from a major mobile gaming company, indicating the growing influence of AppGallery as a means to reach large international audiences.

“We are developing partnerships with some of the world’s leading game developers and as they reap the dividends of exposure to our vast user base, confidence amongst other studios and developers is growing,” said Derek Yu, President of Huawei CEE & Nordic and Canada at Huawei Consumer Business Group. “This of course benefits our customers who are increasingly gaining access to the exciting, inspiring games that feature at the top of their gaming wish-lists.”

Angry Birds is widely acknowledged as the game that established mobile as a viable gaming platform. However it is Angry Birds 2 that drove the popularity of the brand, challenging users to build the ultimate flock to defeat their enemies, the pigs, and save the eggs. Gamers will be able to train their skills on Angry Birds 2 by mastering the slingshot, which will accelerate them up the leader-board, increase their scoring power by recruiting birds with feathers and competing in new events to collect seasonal hats.

This is the first Rovio game to be listed on AppGallery, however the movie based on the game is already available on Huawei Video¹, the company’s platform for video content. As well as playing the game, users will also be able to customise their phones using Huawei Themes to display Angry Birds 2 branding, while customers with Huawei smartwatches and bands will be able to download Angry Birds 2 watch faces.

As part of its commitment to developers’ commercial success, Huawei will also support the launch of Angry Birds 2 with 50% cash back on the first in-game transaction, and 20% on other transactions in Europe² between 1^st and 14^th July.

“We are very excited that Angry Birds 2 will now be available to millions more gamers around the world through our partnership with AppGallery” says Miikka Lindgren, VP of Business Development at Rovio. “Rovio’s mission is to create joy, and we are always happy when our games and the joy we create reach new audiences. I hope lots of new players get into some serious pig popping fun with our Angry Birds and their porky enemies, using all the fantastic gameplay options that we are putting at their disposal.”

Huawei provides comprehensive support for app integrations

Huawei has always worked closely with app publishers throughout the technical process of bringing games onto AppGallery. It forms part of Huawei’s commitment to all developers in empowering them to quickly realise the massive business benefits and enhanced user reach of an app store that is now the third largest in the world.

As one of the world’s fastest-growing app marketplaces, AppGallery strives to partner with leading brands and gaming developers, like Rovio, whose titles attract the biggest global audiences. This is allowing the platform to list a constant stream of exciting, challenging and entertaining content, connecting users with the games they most want to play and developers with a new and previously untapped customer-base.

The gaming category is at the forefront of apps expansion on AppGallery with over 500% more games now available on the platform compared to a year ago. The company has also created a separate tab dedicated to gaming on AppGallery’s home page, which was launched along with the new-look app store design earlier this year. The feature allows users to easily find games and content specific to their interests quickly and easily.

As part of its ecosystem development, Huawei is working closely with over 4 million registered developers to constantly bring new content to the platform, with over 134,000 applications now integrated with HMS, Huawei’s proprietary mobile services platform.

Fast-growing content producer announces its involvement in a long-awaited sequel.

Renowned iGaming content developer BGaming aims to capture significant victories once more in Fishing Club 2, the follow-up to one of the firm’s most profitable #Casual games.

Participants settle in around a picturesque lake before dropping their lines into the water to discover what prizes they might reel in. The game offers a first-person perspective, engaging players directly in the action while conveying the soothing ambiance of an actual fishing experience.

BGaming has considered players’ opinions on the original game and provided them with greater freedom in their gameplay of Fishing Club 2. Players can fish at three spots located at dawn, dusk, and twilight. This provides each session with a unique twist and enables players to discover the atmosphere that suits their preferences.

The new Fishing Club game offers two bonus features. The Fishing Net bonus, capable of being activated for ×60 the player’s wager, spreads widely, while the TNT Bonus, valued at ×100 the wager, creates a massive blast in the water. You can acquire both of these by using the Buy Bonus button, ensuring a victory.

A skilled angler retains trophies, and the game enables players to track theirs with the well-known features Best Win and Best Catch. These show the greatest single-spin win amount and the largest multipliers achieved.

Vasili Pauliuchenko, Game Producer at BGaming, said, “The original Fishing Club title is one of players’ most-loved #Casual games by BGaming. Having listened to their feedback, we are taking them back to the open waters in Fishing Club 2 with a few pivotal updates.

We love to give our players more control over how they play, and that is on full display with Fishing Club 2. They can decide when and where they fish and what tools to use for most successful angling. We are sure that such personalization will be a hit with the game’s fans and those new to the series.”
