Forget Minesweeper, Space Cadet Pinball, and Solitaire, there’s a new kid on the block. Everyone’s favourite thing to hate / love (delete as appropriate), Candy Crush Saga, is coming bundled in with every single copy of Windows 10, Microsoft has announced.
The saccharine-tinged sweet-toothed grandaddy of mobile gaming will be there for all, ready to while away those dull hours on the train. The ubiquitous Candy Crush Saga has already found a home on over half a billion mobile devices, delivering a dangerously addictive variation on the match-3 game types, but now it wants to invade your homes.
“Gaming has always been a huge part of the Windows experience, with titles like Solitaire, Minesweeper, and Hearts each being played millions of times over the years,” said Microsoft on the Xbox News Wire. “While these are all returning in Windows 10, those aren’t the only games you’ll be playing. In fact, we've got some great news to announce today: King will be bringing Candy Crush Saga to Windows 10.” Finally, Microsoft’s come good on its commitment to PC gaming…
It’ll be automatically installed in any Windows 10 installation so there’s no escaping it this time around. That’s not the end for developer King’s games either, with a host of other titles set to hit Windows 10 in the near future.
I have to say we had our money on Minecraft cropping up in every copy of Windows 10, but Microsoft’s clearly got different plans for that money spinner.
Will you be having a crafty Candy Crush Saga session when no one's around? Or keeping it old-school with Solitaire?
