―Angry Birds Team, on the closure of Angry Birds Star Wars series^[4]

Angry Birds Star Wars II is the second puzzle strategy video game installment in the Angry Birds Star Wars series and acts as the prequel to the first game, Angry Birds Star Wars, continuing the collaboration between Rovio Entertainment and LucasArts. On July 15, 2013, Rovio announced that it would be releasing its second entry to the Angry Birds Star Wars series on September 19 of the same year. However, the game was released on iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8, and Kindle Fire on September 18, 2013, a day early than initially planned. Unlike the first game, Angry Birds Star Wars II introduces Hasbro's toys-to-life technology, Telepods, allowing players to scan their physical toys to be used in the game.

The main story of Angry Birds Star Wars II broadly adapts and parodies the events seen throughout the prequel trilogy, from the Boonta Eve Classic all the way to the Great Jedi Purge, which is spread across five different chapters. The game also allows players to play as both opposing sides, the Bird Side and the Pork Side, giving two different perspectives of the same story.
