Hoping to keep its Candy-themed franchise at the top, King Digital Entertainment is launching its Candy Crush Soda Saga game on Facebook today.

King describes the new game as a “sister title” to its monster hit, Candy Crush Saga, which has stayed at the top of the charts for a couple of years and has generated more than a billion dollars in revenue. The game has been in limited testing for a while, but King is going wide with it today on Facebook on the web.
