Planet 51 getting mobile content push from Zed

Three games and more than 100 pieces of content tying in with CGI movie.

Zed has announced plans for a splurge of mobile content based on upcoming computer-animated movie Planet 51, which comes out next month.

The company is making three different mobile games, including a dedicated iPhone game called Planet 51 Racer. There'll also be two Java games: platformer Planet 51 On The Run and racer Planet 51 Behind The Wheel.

Meanwhile, Zed is making more than 100 wallpapers and ringtones available based on the movie.

The company must have paid through the nose to license a big-budget Hollywood flick, right? Probably not - Planet 51 is actually being produced by a sister company of Zed's: Ilion Animation Studios.

There's also spin-off console and handheld games, and an online virtual world.
