NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - June 9, 2009) - Playlogic Entertainment, Inc. (OTCBB : PLGC ),
an independent publisher of entertainment software, announced today that it
has secured worldwide rights to publish for the Apple® iPhone™ and
iPod® touch. This news follows the hiring of several staff to the

with videogame veteran agencies Reverb Communications and U & I
Entertainment.
"We plan to fully support Apple with a wide selection of new IP as well as
our existing back catalogue of games," said Rogier W. Smit, executive vice
president of Playlogic Entertainment. "Over the past year it has become
apparent that the iPhone has moved from being just a mobile platform to
becoming another console in the mix. This announcement provides additional
insight into Playlogic's aggressive roadmap for 2009, with a strong line-up
on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii and now also focusing on the iPhone
platform."
"Our business is based on building great games. Adding another platform to
the mix like the iPhone or iPod touch provides great revenue possibilities
for Playlogic, and provides us with new customers to experience our
games," added Smit.
Playlogic's newly announced App Store program will be managed by Reverb
Communications which currently represents a number of highly successful
iPhone publishers and developers including Publisher X and Pangea Software.
Pangea is best known for their award-winning App Store titles Cro-Mag Rally
and Enigmo which were recently named as two of the Top 20 all time
best-selling paid Apple applications.
