Why do you need heroes? You’ve got these malicious aliens called Crogenitors and they’re zipping around the galaxy willy nilly, causing mayhem by genetically transforming matter. They have unleashed something evil called Darkspore which is making everyone’s life miserable by mutating every being it comes in contact with."
Darkspore is back on Steam, following its recent removal from the digital distribution service over service issues.
In the wake of the game's removal from Steam, developer Maxis has denied claims that Darkspore has been abandoned, instead announcing that a persistent play-denying issue has been fixed after months of gamer complaints.
GameZone writes, "Electronic Arts has reached out to us to clarify some confusion stemming from a game-breaking bug in Darkspore that resulted in players unable to log-in to the game and its eventual removal from the Steam store."
