Racing spin-off Angry Birds Go flutters to iOS in December

3D racer Angry Birds Go will arrive worldwide on 11th December, developer Rovio has announced, with iOS and Android launches expected on day one.

Angry Birds Go looks like a mobile Mario Kart clone - there are multiple characters to race as and karts to customise, plus power-ups, coins and weapons to use.

It's also free-to-play - and the exact details of what you'll pay for have yet to be detailed.

"The game will be built from the ground up as a free-to-play title, with a whole host of modes and features included from the get-go," Rovio stated (thanks, Modojo). Which suggests that there will also be modes and features not included from the off.

The game will also be compatible with Hasbro's Angry Birds Telepods - Skylanders-style toys which use QR codes rather than NFC connectivity to scan extras into your game.

Take a look at some in-game footage below.
