News: Team Dakota over at Microsoft has revealed that Project Spark is coming out of beta and will be hitting store shelves next week.

Microsoft has revealed that the beta for Project Spark is now over and the full version will be available beginning next week. Project Spark on Xbox One and Windows 8 will be officially releasing on October 7 in the U.S. (October 9th and October 10th in certain other regions). Some interesting pieces of information were revealed that you might want to know:

Your Project Spark beta account will automatically carry over to a Project Spark live account

Everything you have created, everything you have earned, everything you have unlocked and purchased, will all be there

The Project Spark Starter Pack for Xbox One and Windows 8 will be hitting store shelves (in both physical and virtual worlds) on October 7 in the US, October 9th and 10th in other regions

Project Spark remains and will continue to remain, a free digital download

One question I am sure you are wondering is what exactly is a Project Spark starter pack? This starter pack essentially gives you a bundle of additional cool Project Spark stuff to “jump-start” your fun. There will also be a small reward for those who participated in the beta. You will want to log in on October 7 to see this special reward show up in your account. If you want to get that reward you still have a small amount of time to earn it as the development team said everyone will earn who has installed and played the Project Spark Beta on Xbox One or Windows 8 prior to 11:59pm PDT on October 5, 2014.
