Rovio Mobile's blockbuster app "Angry Birds" is headed to home consoles, and soon.
The developer also says they are currently working on an Angry Birds 2 game for mobile users.

Rovio's new version of the game will work on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii, opening up the game to a whole new giant customer set.
CEO Peter Vesterbacka says the console version will hit next year, likely in the Q1.

As for Angry Birds 2, the game will not be a sequel but instead a completely new game.

In the game, "the pigs will be a lot more active than just being slingshotted at by birds," notes the CEO.

Angry Birds has sold upwards of 15 million copies at $.99 from the Android Market and the iOS App Store.
