EA Mobile said Friday that "Spore Origins,"an original game for the iPhone and iPod touch, will debut this month.

EA Mobile, a division of Redwood City, Calif.-based Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS), said the game takes full advantage of the Cupertino, Calif.-based Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) devices’ built-in accelerometer as players tilt, turn and twist their way through a world made of primordial ooze. In conjunction with the launch of "Spore Origins," the company also announced a list of nine games in development for both the iPhone and iPod touch platforms.

Travis Boatman, vice president Worldwide Studios at EA Mobile, said, “By leveraging the unique capabilities of these devices, players can customize their own creatures and shape their destiny in an exciting evolutionary journey.”

"Spore Origins" will be available globally from the Apple App Store on iPhone and iPod touch or by visiting www.eamobile.com from an iPhone.
