This one was seen coming by quite a few, given its previous leak on fansite CrackBerry, and RIM’s gaming head’s promise of “something wonderful” hitting the PlayBook today – but Rovio’s Angry Birds Space is now officially available from BlackBerry App World for the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, retailing for $2.99 USD (or £2.99 GBP in the UK).

Angry Birds Space features over sixty interstellar levels on planets and in zero gravity, with brand new birds and gameplay features. The PlayBook version appears to be more or less identical to its brethren on other platforms, and the promise of “regular free updates” is included in its features list.
