Darkspore release date revealed

March to glory.

Maxis PC game Darkspore will release on 29th March, a new trailer has revealed.

The release date popped up at the end of a developer diary video released yesterday. Check it out below.

Darkspore is a action role-playing game that fuses the warm, fuzzy creationism of Spore with the hack and slash loot grind of Diablo.

Plenty of Spore's ideas carry across, such as near limitless customisation of your hero creature. There's also co-op for up to four people as well as multiplayer for the competitively minded.
