Rovio Updates Angry Birds Rio To Version 2.0 With New Episode Based On 'Rio 2'
Rovio has just updated Angry Birds Rio to version 2.0.
Interestingly, Angry Birds Rio 2.0 introduces a brand new episode based on “Rio 2,” the upcoming sequel to the 2011 computer-animated film of which the game was originally a tie-in.
Titled High Dive, the new episode invites you to make a big splash in 20 new regular levels and six new bonus levels set in a Brazilian port harbor. In these levels, the Amazon river dolphins are accidentally trapped in cages and are thus in need of your help.
Fortunately, you can dive below to break open those cages from underwater — similar to how you would carry out an underwater attack by flinging the titular feathered fiends under the icy waters and up toward the bad piggies in Angry Birds Seasons' Arctic Eggspedition chapter.

Angry Birds Rio for iPhone and Angry Birds Rio HD for iPad are both available in the App Store for free.
Angry Birds Rio received its previous update last December. That update added a new Rocket Rumble episode with new levels and a new explosive gameplay mechanic. It also brought he incendiary Rocket Bird and the bubbly Stella the Pink Bird to the game.
Speaking of Stella, Rovio announced a week ago that the next title in its hugely popular Angry Birds franchise would be Angry Birds Stella, featuring the eponymous bird and her beaked BFFs.
