The recently announced PC version of Plague Inc is now available for purchase via Steam Early Access for $15.

While the final release will include new features like multiplayer, a content creator, and 3D graphics, the Early Access release will be limited. Described as "stable and polished," the early release will include the core single player game with 7 disease types and 3 cheat modes. Additional modes will be added over the coming weeks through free updates, including the mind-controlling Neurax Worm, zombie-making Necroa Virus, speed runs, and more.

Being based on a mobile game, the system requirements are quite lax, requiring just Windows XP with a 2GHz processor and integrated graphics.
