Everyone has been eagerly waiting for Will Wright’s Spore, which is expected to land on shelves on September 7th in North America, and September 5th in Europe. The game puts you in control of the evolution of a single species throughout several different phases of life.

In the mean time, however, Maxis will be releasing a free trial version of the Creature Creator. The software will allow players to create, you guessed it, creatures. It will contain around 25% of all of the available creature parts of the full retail game. The trial software will be included in the SimCity Box, which is slated for a June release. Alternatively, you can download the trial separately on the official website around the same time.
