Darkspore shuts down

Electronic Arts has shut down Darkspore, a Sci-fi Action-RPG game from Maxis.

On the game's official forums, the publisher said they "will be closing the doors on Darkspore, effective March 1st, 2016" and reminded players that there are other games available on EA's Origin platform. The forums have since been brought offline, and Darkspore's website remains with a single page notifying visitors of the game's closure.

First debuted in 2011, the always-online game used the Creature Editing technology from Spore as the key selling point. The game promised unique customization options to create genetically altered heroes which were in turn used against a mutant horde that has terrorized the galaxy.
