Spore Release Date

Last updated: Feb 29, 2008 by xDreamache

Spore will be released on September 7, 2008.


The official release date was announced on February 12, 2008 with a newsletter and a news piece on the spore.com website.


Outdated News...

On October 24th, Will Wright confirmed that Spore is on schedule to be released in Spring of 2008. Full story here. "

On August 2, 2007 - EA CEO John Riccitiello and EA Games Chief Frank Gibeau have confirmed that spore will be available in either March, April or May of 2008. Read more: EA CEO Plays Spore

On June 20, 2007, it was announced by EA that Spore has "slipped out of fiscal 08 into fiscal 09". Fiscal 08 ends on March 31, 2008 however so the game could release as early as April 1, 2008.

As announced May 8, 2007 : It is official news that Spore will not be released in 2007. And will not be seen no earlier than Spring of 2008. This comes by way of the EA CEO speaking on behalf of their earnings report.

Originally slated for a Fall '06 release date, when Spore will in fact be released is debatable. There has been strong evidence recently that Spore will not be released until 2007 such as and the EA 'financial' statementGameSpot's newly listed release date. If the new Spore release date information is true, we may not see Spore on store shelves until March '07.

 

Update: Will Wright confirmed in an interview on the Colbert Report that we will not see Spore until sometime in the second half of 2007. You can view the video by clicking on the xSpore media player icon to the right of this page.
 
Update 2:More Recently Will was stated to have said a "Septemberish Release Date."

Robis Doyal - Apr 10, 2008 10:04 AM

we are witnesses to the second and first in the series of consol downfall of the age....so i say again.... the wii sucks get spore for the PC (god hates linuxs and Mac)

Marv303 - Apr 10, 2008 05:07 AM

So ha!

Marv303 - Apr 09, 2008 02:49 PM

I disagree, the Wii is a revolutionary step forward in gaming and has some very cool games like Mario, Zelda and Metroid. YOU'RE WRONG!

Robis Doyal - Apr 08, 2008 12:47 PM

Wii sucks sell the one you have and your old PC and buy a new computer. you know... somthing actually worth playing games on

Marv303 - Apr 03, 2008 04:11 AM

When is the Wii version of spore coming out? Is it going to be the same as the Spore on PC and Mac? Or will it be like Spore Creatures (god forbid) ? Because I don't think my computer will handle Spore.

XIIICrusader - Apr 02, 2008 03:13 PM

Its the 2nd of April yet no advertisement has passed my eyes on the tube, so is this delayed s'more cuz i cant handle that! One more month then it SHOULD (or better) come out.

Teh Guest - Mar 26, 2008 04:02 PM

i agree with serg24... the fact that spore made a video about the release date says to me that they are set and ready for that... i just wish they can throw out a date for the editor that might come out. i have no worries that 9-7-08 is THE day!

serg24 - Mar 24, 2008 02:54 PM

Well to me i have a good feeling they are goint to realese it in that date. Through the years they have been saying stupid realese dates. Neither of them said it would be official. BUT now they say it is official. So that means there might be a good chance that Spore is going to realesed in that date.

jessebied - Mar 23, 2008 07:13 PM

Hmmm...I'm not giving my hopes up if it doesnt get released on Sept. 7 been waiting for EVER!!! I bet they change release dates again =(

kingtigar - Mar 23, 2008 12:05 PM

heres a goal in the game: massacre all races and creatures they may be inapropiate : D

malli - Mar 20, 2008 06:30 PM

I'm looking forward to the beginning where it is a race to eat the most and get on land! Overall i love the fact of creating your own species from scratch like the shape, color, size, basically you can just let your mind go free and create whatever you want, which will be really fun. Respect, (*$malli$*)

European - Mar 12, 2008 12:47 PM

In your face, americans! Europes releasedate is 5/9/2008 (I'm pretty sure that americans mark it 9/5/2008)... And by the way, have you guys already pre-ordered?

Kozae - Mar 11, 2008 10:05 PM

The most anyone can do right now is forget about it until it is in your mailbox. So just sit back and relax.
