According to the terms of the agreement, the characters of the Finnish game will appear in the Japanese butler. Users will fight them in a new dungeon, and will also be able to collect a “bird” deck. The promotion will last from October 20 to November 2.

Rovio, in turn, has committed to launch a new level for Angry Birds Epic in the Puzzle & Dragons setting, where players will meet the most famous monsters of the Japanese game.

The upcoming promotion is quite standard for Puzzle & Dragons, where DC and Evangelion characters have already appeared. Initially, such a collaboration was used to attract new players and return old ones to the game. Today, it is also a marketing tool for GungHo. The appearance of characters unknown in the Land of the Rising Sun of the Puzzle & Dragons game, in theory, increases the downloads of the first. 

For Rovio, such an advertising campaign is also not new. But usually Finns work on a slightly larger scale. Previously, they launched Angry Birds Rio, and very soon they plan to release Angry Birds about the American football club Philadelphia Eagles. 

By the way, after a cross-promotion between Clash of Clans and Puzzle & Dragons in the summer of 2013, GungHo acquired 51% of Supercell
