Glu Mobile, the developer of the popular “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” game, said it will develop a new mobile game with singer Katy Perry.<\/p>\n

The San Francisco company said Wednesday that the game will include Perry’s voice and likeness. It plans to launch the game in late 2015 on Apple and Android mobile devices.<\/p>\n

The Kim Kardashian game, which also features the reality TV star’s voice and likeness, has been a big hit for Glu. The company on Wednesday reported $74.3 million in adjusted revenue from the game in 2014 – its biggest seller by far, although sales slowed in the fourth quarter from the third quarter.<\/p>\n

Perry has nine No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including “I Kissed a Girl” and “Roar.” She performed at the Super Bowl on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Glu Mobile Inc. also raised its guidance for 2015 on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Its shares rose 13 percent to $4.35 in aftermarket trading.<\/p>\n
