Peggle Officially Coming to iPhone

While Apple had teased an iPhone version of Peggle back in early 2008, no real confirmation had ever come forth from Peggle’s publisher, PopCap Games. That all changed late last week when a PopCap employee let some news that may not have been ready for publication.

On the company’s official Twitter page was a tweet that read “peggle for iphone planned for this year as well!” The message was removed a short time later, but not before word began to spread. At first PopCap refused to comment on the now-removed tweet, but later confirmed to Joystiq that not only would we see the title in 2009, but we’d likely see it in early March.

We’ve attempted to get further details out of PopCap, but at the moment their lips are sealed. No word yet on pricing or gameplay details. Will Peggle on the iPhone feature new levels and challenges or will it be territory we’ve visited before? Will aiming be controlled via touch or tilt? There are still a lot of questions that remain unanswered. Luckily we’ll only have to wait until early March to find out.
