While multiplayer space shooter EXO-Planet works out the kinks in its iPad release, SGN is prepping the launch of an iPhone and iPod touch version.

Speaking with us today about the matchmaking system in the iPad version, a representative of SGN confirmed the game will be released for iPhone and iPod touch soon.

"When we launch the iPhone version, there will be significantly more players."

Precisely how close we are to an iPhone release is unclear, but given the finished, albeit tenuous, state of the iPad version it shouldn't be long.

It's safe to assume that the iPhone version won't be released until SGN has remedied the technical troubles that are making play difficult on iPad. When it does appear, expect it to compete directly with ngmoco's online multiplayer frag-fest Eliminate.

EXO-Planet is available now for iPad at a price of £3.99/$6.99 - the iPhone and iPod touch version is coming soon.
