Rovio, the company behind the popular multi-platform game Angry Birds, has raised an impressive $42 million in a funding round from Accel Partners, Atomico and Felicis Ventures, GigaOM reports.
Skype co-founder Niklas Zennström, who founded the VC firm Atomico, will be joining Rovio’s board.
Starting out as a simple iPhone game, Angry Birds has become a huge franchise that's been spreading in all directions: other platforms, Facebook, toy production, and there are even plans to turn the theme into an animated series.
Rovio said it has sold 2 million plush toys, and in December 2010 the mobile version of Angry Birds has been downloaded 42 million times, with 25% of those downloads being paid.
