“If nothing else, Spore features an amazing creature creator that has an unprecedented amount of flexibility - allowing players to let their imaginations run free. So, it’s no surprise that the editor should be the centerpiece of the action role-playing game Darkspore, where it’s more powerful than ever. In this producer video, Gameplay Engineer Casey Weaver describes the ways players can use the Hero Editor to modify and upgrade characters in a variety of ways using body parts collected throughout the game. Parts can be stripped of their stats and embedded with new ones from a different item, so players can maintain the look they want for their heroes. Best of all, players won’t be limited to just one hero, so they can keep a bunch of different creatures on reserve and select the one that best suits a mission.
More information about Darkspore is expected to come as we draw closer to the game’s release on March 29, 2011, which by the way is revealed for the first time at the tale end of the dev diary video.” - bigdownload.com

Exclusive Darkspore Hero Spotlight Video: Zrin
“Slated for release in Spring of this year, Maxis’ Darkspore, unrelated to their previous title, Spore, was just announced at this last GamesCom. Somewhat akin to a Diablo-meets-Pokémon title, this PC title has more than 25 heroes for players to take control of. Featuring both a single-player campaign and up to four-player co-op play, there are more than ten thousand parts to upgrade your Darkspore, so your hero won’t be the same as your friends’.
We have an exclusive look at the first hero to be profiled by Maxis, Zrin. Zrin, a Plasma Sentinel, has powers focused around lightning and fire. Rather than spoil the fun, however, I’ll just let you watch the video below. Check it out in all of its HD glory, and check out the gallery for the game, too!” - RPGFan
