Keywords Studios plc

("Keywords Studios", the "Company")

 Issue of Shares

Keywords Studios, the international technical and creative services provider
to the global video games and entertainment industries, today announces the
issuance of 53,482 new ordinary shares to the vendors of Hardsuit Labs, Inc.
("Hardsuit") in respect of the share element of the initial consideration due
post completion.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the admission
of these 53,482 new ordinary shares to trading on AIM.  Admission of the new
shares is expected to take place at 8:00am on 30 May 2023.

The Company's total issued share capital following admission will consist of
78,892,895 ordinary shares of one pence each with one voting right per
share. There are 29,250 ordinary shares in the Company's Employee
Benefit Trust ("EBT"), and the EBT has waived its right to exercise its
voting rights and to receive dividends in respect of these ordinary shares.

Therefore, the number of ordinary shares with voting rights is 78,863,645.
This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the
calculations by which they can determine if they are required to notify their
interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company following
admission.
