The beta sign-up process has begun for EA and Maxis' action-RPG Darkspore. Anyone who wants to sign up for the beta should go to the game's official site through this link. The beta sign-up link can be found on the right side of the page.

Darkspore is the second game in the Spore franchise. Like its predecessor, it features a variety of character customization options for its alien creatures, but it otherwise takes the franchise in a totally new direction with its action-oriented gameplay. It will feature three character classes, four player co-op play, and a wide variety of missions and alien environments.
