PopCap Games has confirmed that Peggle Mobile will be its next mobile game, and that it'll be released later this month.

It's based on the super-popular (20 million downloads and counting) casual game, which has already been ported to DS and iPod.

Now it's coming to regular mobiles, too. The game mixes pinball, pool and pachinko to create something pretty unique, as you try to clear levels of orange pegs by firing a silver ball at them.

The news won't come as a surprise to regular Pocket Gamer readers, mind, as PopCap CEO Dave Roberts let it slip back in July at the Casual Connect show in Seattle.

However, here's some more news: PopCap says it's actually working on "nearly a half-dozen yet-to-be-announced mobile titles" besides Peggle. Exciting stuff.
