Maxis and Electronic Arts have confirmed that Spore Galactic Adventures, the first full-fledged expansion pack for Spore, is heading to the Macintosh platform on June 23. The Adventures are created by the Robot Chicken writers exclusively for Will Wright's popular simulation / God game.

According to the official report issued by Maxis and EA today, the campaign was conceptualized by Robot Chicken co-creators Seth Green and Matt Senreich. The writing team, including Matt Beans, Doug Goldstein, Mike Fasolo, Breckin Meyer, Dan Milano, Tom Root, Kevin Shinick, Hugh Sterbakov and Zeb Wells, handled the executing part. Spore fans are promised to experience “missions with exploding poo, angry yetis, ruler yielding librarians and more.”

“We’re big fans of Spore, so teaming up on Spore Galactic Adventures was a natural fit and so much fun for all the guys at Robot Chicken,” Seth Green, co-creator of Robot Chicken, said. Co-creator Matt Senreich continued by adding that, “We're all gaming geeks, so when the Spore guys said they had an alluring proposition for us, how could we say no? Instead of creating absurd worlds with toys, this gave us the opportunity to create literally anything we wanted as gamers. Geek moment. We think that RC fans will love the pretty random and absurd adventures we created and we can't wait to goof around with the ones the fans create.”

“Gamers and Adult Swim fans alike are going to absolutely love the hilarity found in the Robot Chicken missions created for Spore Galactic Adventures,” Kip Katsarelis, lead producer of Spore Galactic Adventures, stated. “Our development team had a blast working with the guys and couldn’t stop laughing the entire time we were together. Their Adventures truly reflect the extent of their wild imaginations as well as how the in-game Adventure Creator tool can create almost any type of story imaginable. Players can only guess the level of absurdity and fun that are in these Adventures.”

When it's released, Spore Galactic Adventures will also allow players to create their own customized Adventures, earn experience points, and go online to show off with what they have created. Learn more by visiting the official Spore website.
