Planet Zoo Release, Frontier Publishing Progress, Capital
Markets Day
Frontier Developments plc (AIM: FDEV, 'Frontier', the 'Group' or
the 'Company'), a leading developer and publisher of videogames, is
delighted to confirm the successful release on PC of Planet Zoo as
planned, on 5 November 2019. Planet Zoo achieved the global number
one bestseller spot on Steam both prior to, and after, its release
at 12 noon GMT on 5 November 2019. Planet Zoo is the ultimate zoo
sim where players can let their imagination run wild, with
authentic living animals who think, feel and explore the world
around them. Planet Zoo allows players to experience a
globe-trotting campaign, create unique habitats and vast
landscapes, make big decisions and meaningful choices, and nurture
their animals as they construct and manage a truly modern zoo where
animal welfare and conservation comes first.
Frontier is pleased to confirm further progress with its
recently announced Frontier Publishing initiative, which is
expanding the Company's game portfolio through external development
partnerships that use Frontier's proven publishing expertise to
supplement its internal development roadmap. The Company is engaged
in discussions with a number of carefully-selected potential
development partners with games at various stages of development.
Two partnerships have already been signed to date, including the
agreement announced with Haemimont Games in June 2019. The Board
continues to expect that the Frontier Publishing business will
become a material contributor to the group in years to come, as
more partnerships are agreed.
Frontier also confirms that it will be hosting a Capital Markets
Day for institutional investors and analysts at its studio in
Cambridge on 12 November 2019. No material new information will be
provided at the event.
David Braben, Chief Executive, said:
"As our fourth major self-published game release, we're thrilled
with the initial response to Planet Zoo. I'd like to thank our team
for their tireless commitment and expertise in creating the
ultimate zoo simulation game. We can't wait to see the amazing
creations from our growing community of Planet Zoo players.
We are also pleased with progress on our Frontier Publishing
initiative. We're passionate about working with the best
independent developers in the business, and the signing of our
second partnership agreement is a great milestone for us."
