Darkspore is back on Steam, following its recent removal from the digital distribution service over service issues.

EA moved quickly yesterday after a post from a moderator of the game's official forum claimed "[Darkspore] is for almost all intents and purposes an abandoned title." It was a significant concern, given that the always-online Darkspore had an error preventing the majority of its players from accessing it. The publisher later stated the moderator was not an EA employee

Late yesterday EA told us it had resolved the problem and it was in the process of relisting Darkspore. The game continues to have a 65 Metacritic and lukewarm reviews.
