Activision has already released a trilogy of games for the Angry Birds franchise. Now the publisher seems to be doing the same with Cut the Rope.
Although Activision hasn’t made an official announcement just yet, a rating appeared on the OFLC earlier today for “Cut the Rope Trilogy”. Exient Entertainment is developing the compilation – the same studio behind Angry Birds Trilogy on 3DS and the recently-released Angry Birds Star Wars.
A new press release sent out by Spike TV reconfirms Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime’s appearance at VGX 2013 this weekend. He’ll be “presenting a new look at an upcoming Wii U game.”
Is that a reference to an already-announced Wii U game? Or something brand new? The announcement doesn’t say, though the wording sort of points to the former.
VGX 2013 will air this Saturday at 6 PM ET / 3 PM PT.
