Finnish development studio Rovio Entertainment has released new versions of Angry Birds Space and Bad Piggies for iPhone and iPad. In addition to these updates, the company also made the original Angry Birds installment a free download on iOS.

Angry Birds Space 1.5.0 arrives with an all-new version of the Angry Birds Space theme song courtesy of Rock icon Slash. “Get the update to hear this exclusive new tune and check out how Slash looks as an honorary Angry Bird!” says Rovio.

Bad Piggies 1.2.1 addresses some minor issues that should result in an improved user experience, according to the company behind some of the world’s most popular physics-based puzzlers.

Both games require just iOS 4.3 and work with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad.

In related news, Rovio has slashed the price on its original Angry Birds game to $0.
