COPENHAGEN, January 28th, 2020: 5th Planet Games A/S (OAX: FIVEPG) is pleased to
announce that it has teamed up with Finnish mobile game experts to further
develop and launch the mobile game based on the smash hit television series
Vikings.

5th Planet Games is still the publisher of the game but teaming up with the
Finnish company Quantum Shake as a sub-contractor which will allow 5th Planet
Games to fast-track development of the game as it will be developed using the
Finnish company's existing game engine, which is a great match to the features
of the Vikings game, says 5th Planet Games CEO Henrik Nielsen.

"I'm confident that the new partnership with Quantum Shake will produce a game
worthy of the high expectations of the millions of Vikings fans worldwide," says
Henrik Nielsen.
 
"This new partnership is an example of 5th Planet Games following the new
company strategy. Instead of only developing games in-house, we team up with the
best possible external partners. We utilize their expert insight and in this
instance their game engine. That gives the best odds for a successful
end-product and spread our risk."

5th Planet Games has a contract with the American media giant MGM allowing the
development and publishing of a game based on the Vikings television series
which since 2013 has spellbound millions of viewers worldwide and is presently
airing its sixth season.
 
According to Parrot Analytics, Vikings is one of the top two "The Most In-Demand
Series Overall" in the world. Episodes have reached more than 10 million viewers
across all platforms.
 
The sixth season will probably be the last of the current setup, but the fans
are not being abandoned. A new storyline is planned in a sequel series titled
"Vikings: Valhalla" which is currently in development for Netflix.
 
The Vikings game is expected to be launched on mobile platforms in August 2020.
 
"The time is right to finish the game and give the fans what they want," says
Henrik Nielsen. "We have the right idea, the right team and the right game
engine."
