Spore Hero is the 2009 Wii action-adventure starring a creature hero whose home planet is threatened by Zarkhator. Nintendo confirms that red meteorites are part of the game and must be disposed of, but the official material available here does not explain a specific “Zarkhator’s Meteor Defense” mission or provide its steps. So there is no verified encounter walkthrough to give without guessing.
What the meteor-defense scenario refers to
Electronic Arts identifies Zarkhator as the evil nemesis threatening the player’s creature home planet. Nintendo’s Wii product description says players must dispose of red meteorites. Together, those details support the broad scenario implied by the title: a threat to the planet involving Zarkhator and red meteors.

They do not establish that “Zarkhator’s Meteor Defense” is the game’s official mission name, what triggers the event, what the objective says on screen, or how the encounter unfolds. No scene-specific walkthrough or verified gameplay account is available in the sources used here. An exact sequence of moves, enemy behaviors, or timing would therefore be speculation.

Nintendo describes Spore Hero as a Wii-exclusive action-adventure. Its product description includes creating a hero, completing quests, fighting, solving puzzles, uncovering creature parts, and disposing of red meteorites. EA’s 2009 announcements describe the game as story-driven and say it contains more than 250 creature parts, which can affect how creatures play and fight.
#1 Best Overall
- Enjoy maximum replay value as you evolve your Spore Hero, then return to explore early areas of the game with new powerful items and abilities.
- Combination sim/rpg gameplay and the first release in the 'Spore' franchise on the Wii gaming platform.
- Create and evolve your own hero with over 250 collectable parts and special abilities. Spore’s revolutionary Creature Creator is brought to life with Wii enhanced controls.
- Fight using your Wii Remote as you spit poison, fire spikes, dive bomb, and bite your enemies. Unlock combos and new fighting skills as you take on dangerous creatures all over the planet.
- Play against a friend in a local versus mode as you bring your wildest Spore creatures into battle in versus multiplayer action.
That broader mix of exploration, combat, puzzles, and creature customization is useful context, but it should not be mistaken for instructions for the meteor event. The official Spore community also published Wii guides to fighting and creature creation. Those cover general controls—not the exact inputs for a meteor-defense encounter.
Keep the Wii game separate from Spore Hero Arena
Spore Hero Arena is a separate Nintendo DS game in the same universe. Nintendo describes that game with its own premise involving arena champions and rogue red meteors. Those details are not evidence about a scene in the Wii version, Spore Hero, and should not be used as its walkthrough.

Release dates by region
The dates differ by region, not necessarily by conflicting accounts. Nintendo UK lists the Wii game’s release as 9 October 2009. EA’s North American launch announcement is dated 6 October 2009 and says the game was then available at North American retailers; EA also gives 9 October for international store shelves. These are the dates stated by those publishers for their respective markets.
