Which studio developed Angry Birds Epic?

Chimera Entertainment developed Angry Birds Epic.

Angry Birds Epic was a major departure from the series’ classic physics-puzzle formula. Instead of launching birds from a slingshot, players controlled a party of bird characters in turn-based role-playing battles. The game added equipment, character classes, crafting and story-driven exploration across Piggy Island.

Chimera Entertainment, a German studio based in Munich, worked on the game’s development, while Rovio Entertainment published it and handled the wider Angry Birds brand. The partnership grew from Chimera’s role-playing concept for the property, allowing Rovio to explore a genre that was very different from the original 2009 game.

The title was soft-launched in selected markets in March 2014 and released worldwide in June 2014. A common mix-up is to credit Rovio alone because Rovio owned and published the franchise. Rovio was the publisher and brand owner, but Chimera is the canonical development-studio answer. Angry Birds Epic is also commonly described as the ninth main installment in the Angry Birds series.
