Atomic Gamer - Will Wright's Maxis Software surprised us all in 2008 when it released its groundbreaking hybrid RTS/RPG/action/God game, Spore. Building on that game's near-endless customization and action game potential, Maxis is set in a few weeks to release Darkspore, a competitive, hero-centric RTS that aims to compete with games like League of Legends and that game’s fan-mod precursor, Defense of the Ancients.
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."
