Angry Birds for Facebook to feature social components, gifting, power-ups, the Mighty Eagle, and more

Rovio has used its blog to reveal several new details about its forthcoming Angry Birds Facebook title, which is scheduled to hit the social network on February 14th.

Angry Birds for Facebook will (shock, horror!) feature the same gameplay as the iOS, Android, BlackBerry, and Windows Phone versions of the physics-based title, but will also include several social components, a variety of power-ups, and a bunch of exclusive levels.

Socially speaking, you'll be able to compete with your buddies for the high score on each of the game's levels, post your victories to your News Feed, and send power-ups to other players if you're feeling generous.

Speaking of power-ups, there'll be four of them: Sling Scope, King Sling, Super Seeds, and Bird Quake. The Mighty Eagle, a.k.a. every piggy's worst nightmare, will also be making an appearance.

You can get a sneak peek at these power-ups, which you'll be able to buy and earn, in the videos below.
