EA and Maxis today announced that a free downloadable demo and a complete retail version of the Spore Creature Creator will be available worldwide from June 17, 2008.
The Spore Creature Creator will give Spore fans the ability to design their own species and share it with friends. All creatures designed with the creator can then be imported into the full retail version of Spore for PC and Mac when it launches on September 5 in Europe.
“We are thrilled to finally be putting the creative tools of Spore into the hands of players around the world,” said Will Wright, chief designer, Maxis. “The amazing creations players design this summer will help populate the game universe we all enter when Spore ships this September, so in a sense, the Spore Creature Creator is the birth of Spore.”
The free demo version of the Spore Creature Creator will be available from Spore.com and will let players create creatures using 25 percent of the creature-making parts from Spore. Creations can be shared with friends and uploaded seamlessly to YouTube.
The complete Creature Creator will offer all creature-making parts and will carry a retail price of $9.99 in North America and EUR 9.99 in European territories.
