This is not exactly a bug, it’s that there are no release wheels yet for 3.11, use pip install pygame --pre (--pre stands for pre release), it will install pygame 2.1.3.dev8 and you can use that, 2.1.3 is coming soon but I can’t tell for sure when.

Was able to duplicate this issue with:
- Python 3.11.0
- macOS Monterey 12.6
- Pygame 2.1.2
I usedpip3 install pygameand got a huge error message, as shown in the OP.
I do have a question, if there is no wheel made for Python3 3.11.0, is installing pygame 2.1.3.dev8 the only option? Is this release stable?
@arknaut Well, that’s the latest version of pygame that has wheels for Python 3.11 so it would be the most stable for that version of Python. Also, yeah, it should be stable enough on its own anyways, but again, it’s kind of temporary, I can’t tell for sure (or at all) but soon wheels for 2.1.3 should be released and they will be made for 3.11 too.
@Matiiss — Okay thanks! (just clarifying) pygame 2.1.3.dev8 has been released as a temporary version of pygame so that python 3.11.0 users can continue using pygame.
Uh, no, it’s more like 2.1.3.dev8 (it’s technically a pre-release btw) happens to have wheels for Python 3.11, it’s not specifically temporarily released for 3.11 because really 2.1.3 is kind of released already, it just doesn’t have wheels yet. But don’t take my word for it, however, I’m pretty sure it’s not something specifically done.
2.1.3dev8 is the only version with 3.11 wheels prebuilt. If you really want to use 2.1.2, you’ll have to build the wheels yourself. But 2.1.3dev8 is essentially the full 2.1.3 release, but in pre-release form. It wasn’t specifically released to target 3.11, but since 3.11 was coming out soon, compatibility with 3.11 was added to dev8 by starbuck5 and ankith
Are there any updates on this? Or an ETA for the new Pygame version?

Unfortunately this is not really a solution for other packages that depend on Pygame.
For instance, I am about to release a new version of Expyriment, which depends on Pygame, and I am currently mainly holding it back due to this issue. Would be great to have some idea on when proper Python 3.11 support is planned (roughly, like within the next few days, or will it still be months?).
@fladd The full release of 2.1.3 is almost out. I’m hoping it’ll be within a week or two at most, but that’s really up to the discretion of the lead maintainer right now
Cant wait for the full release ! 😄

Can confirm this works. (Tested on Win10)
I would advocate for a point release that basically doesn’t change anything from the previous, but simply provides wheels for the new python version. A lot of beginners will get caught up on this while a new patch release is prepared. e.g., 2.1.3 simply ships additional 3.11 wheels, 2.1.4 gets moved to new patch release.

To the best of my knowledge, 2.1.3 is ready for release. Just waiting on the head maintainer to actually release it.

Since it has been over a month now: Is there any news regarding the release?

To the best of my knowledge, the lead maintainer has not said anything to anyone in that time. Nobody else has the ability to release 2.1.3, so unfortunately we’re stuck waiting
@illume Python 3.11 has been out for a month and a half (and pygame’s main branch has been on 2.1.4dev1 for just as long). More and more people are starting to move to 3.11 and the fact that the only version of pygame with support for 3.11 requires knowledge of how to install a prerelease might detract users from continuing to use pygame. Is there something specific holding back the release? There are also other projects that are waiting for pygame 2.1.3 to fully release so they can update their dependencies.
I’ve tried and tried, but can’t even instal the pre-release.

…
I think so. Both ‘pip’ and ‘pip3’ report version 22.3.1 from the same ‘penv global 3.11.0’.
Ah, I suspect it is because the pi is looking on the piwheels repository instead of PyPI and it won’t find any 3.11 wheels on piwheels because piwheels only builds wheels for a maximum of python 3.9.
If your pip is configured to use piwheels, but you want to use PyPI instead, you can remove or comment out the extra-index-url configuration in /etc/pip.conf
Otherwise you will have to learn to build pygame from source if you want to use 3.11 on a raspberry PI.

Had same error. Used temporary fix.
Please, please, please post this solution on the homepage of Pygame!
I’m an experienced coder but new to python and spent several hours thinking I had done something wrong.
Unfortunately, the only person with access to the pygame.org website is the same person that can fix this whole mess in the first place. But, they’ve been unresponsive so far.

A common error you may encounter when using Python is modulenotfounderror: no module named ‘pygame’. This error occurs when Python cannot detect the pygame library in your current environment, and Pygame does not come with the default Python installation. This tutorial goes through the exact steps to troubleshoot this error for the Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems.
ModuleNotFoundError: no module named ‘pygame’
What is ModuleNotFoundError?
The ModuleNotFoundError occurs when the module you want to use is not present in your Python environment. There are several causes of the modulenotfounderror:
The module’s name is incorrect, in which case you have to check the name of the module you tried to import. Let’s try to import the re module with a double e to see what happens:
import ree
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ModuleNotFoundError Traceback (most recent call last)
1 import ree
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ree'
To solve this error, ensure the module name is correct. Let’s look at the revised code:
import re
print(re.__version__)
2.2.1
You may want to import a local module file, but the module is not in the same directory. Let’s look at an example package with a script and a local module to import. Let’s look at the following steps to perform from your terminal:
mkdir example_package
cd example_package
mkdir folder_1
cd folder_1
vi module.py
Note that we use Vim to create the module.py file in this example. You can use your preferred file editor, such as Emacs or Atom. In module.py, we will import the re module and define a simple function that prints the re version:
import re
def print_re_version():
print(re.__version__)
Close the module.py, then complete the following commands from your terminal:
cd ../
vi script.py
Inside script.py, we will try to import the module we created.
import module
if __name__ == '__main__':
mod.print_re_version()
Let’s run python script.py from the terminal to see what happens:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "script.py", line 1, in <module>
import module
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'module'
To solve this error, we need to point to the correct path to module.py, which is inside folder_1. Let’s look at the revised code:
import folder_1.module as mod
if __name__ == '__main__':
mod.print_re_version()
When we run python script.py, we will get the following result:
2.2.1
Lastly, you can encounter the modulenotfounderror when you import a module that is not present in your Python environment.
What is pygame?
Pygame (stylized as pygame) is a set of Python modules for writing video games. It is highly portable and runs on every platform and operating system, and Pygame does not automatically come installed with Python. The simplest way to install pygame is to use the package manager for Python called pip. The following instructions to install pygame are for the major Python version 3.
How to install pygame on Windows Operating System
First, you need to download and install Python on your PC. Ensure you select the install launcher for all users and Add Python to PATH checkboxes. The latter ensures the interpreter is in the execution path. Pip is automatically on Windows for Python versions 2.7.9+ and 3.4+.
You can check your Python version with the following command:
python3 --version
You can install pip on Windows by downloading the installation package, opening the command line and launching the installer. You can install pip via the CMD prompt by running the following command.
python get-pip.py
You may need to run the command prompt as administrator. Check whether the installation has been successful by typing.
pip --version
To install pygame with pip, run the following command from the command prompt.
pip3 install pygame
How to install pygame on Mac Operating System
Open a terminal by pressing command (⌘) + Space Bar to open the Spotlight search. Type in terminal and press enter. To get pip, first ensure you have installed Python3. You can use the package manager Homebrew to do this. To install Homebrew, run the following command from your terminal:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"
Follow the steps and prompts before the installation starts, then insert the Homebrew directory at the top of your PATH environment variable. You can do this by adding the following line at the bottom of your ~/.profile file:
export PATH="/usr/local/opt/python/libexec/bin:$PATH"
Alternatively, if you have OS X 10.12 (Sierra) or older, use:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:$PATH
You can check that you have Python 3 installed on your system by running:
python3 --version
Python 3.8.8
Download pip by running the following curl command:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
The curl command allows you to specify a direct download link, and using the -o option sets the name of the downloaded file.
Install pip by running:
python3 get-pip.py
From the terminal, use pip3 to install pygame:
pip3 install pygame
How to install pygame on Linux Operating System
All major Linux distributions have Python installed by default. However, you will need to install pip. You can install pip from the terminal, but the installation instructions depend on the Linux distribution you are using. You will need root privileges to install pip. Open a terminal and use the commands relevant to your Linux distribution to install pip.
Installing pip for Ubuntu, Debian, and Linux Mint
sudo apt install python-pip3
Installing pip for CentOS 8 (and newer), Fedora, and Red Hat
sudo dnf install python-pip3
Installing pip for CentOS 6 and 7, and older versions of Red Hat
sudo yum install epel-release
sudo yum install python-pip3
Installing pip for Arch Linux and Manjaro
sudo pacman -S python-pip
Installing pip for OpenSUSE
sudo zypper python3-pip
Once you have installed pip, you can install pygame using:
pip3 install pygame
Check pygame Version
Once you have successfully installed pygame, you can use two methods to check the version of pygame. First, you can use pip show from your terminal.
pip show pygame
Name: pygame
Version: 2.1.2
Summary: Python Game Development
Second, within your python program, you can import pygame and then reference the __version__ attribute:
import pygame
print(pygame.__version__)
2.1.2
Installing pygame Using Anaconda
Anaconda is a distribution of Python and R for scientific computing and data science. You can install Anaconda by going to the installation instructions. Once you have installed Anaconda, you can install pygame using the following command:
conda install -c cogsci pygame
Summary
Congratulations on reading to the end of this tutorial. The modulenotfounderror occurs if you misspell the module name, incorrectly point to the module path or do not have the module installed in your Python environment. If you do not have the module installed in your Python environment, you can use pip to install the package. However, you must ensure you have pip installed on your system. You can also install Anaconda on your system and use the conda install command to install the pygame library.

ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: python setup.py egg_info Check the logs for full command output.
It seems to download the files just fine but does NOT like to continue after that. I’m running python 3.8. And yes, Python is installed in the PATH variable.
I feel like this could be a really stupid issue and I’ve just overlooked something but I cant seem to find anything that helps.
——edit——
I’ve worked out a bit of a solution — just download and use python 3.7 instead of 3.8 and that seems to work better.
So I’ve got a bit of an issue with python and/or pip…
Python, when asked to download pygame in CMD with py -m pip install -U pygame --user, gives me this error:

This article will tell you how to install the Python Pygame module correctly and how to fix the problems during the installation process.
1. Install Python Pygame Module Use The PIP Install Command.
- Open the terminal and run the command pip install pygame in it.

2. Install Python Pygame Module Use The Binary Installer File.
- Besides using the pip install command, we can also install it using the downloaded binary installer file.
- Go to the Pygame GitHub website to download the Pygame installer file that matches your OS and Python versions.
- Open a terminal and go to the Pygame installer downloaded directory.
- Run the command python -m pip install –user pygame-2.1.2-cp37-cp37m-macosx_10_9_x86_64.whl to install the Pygame from the installer file.
$ python -m pip install --user pygame-2.1.2-cp37-cp37m-macosx_10_9_x86_64.whl Processing ./pygame-2.1.2-cp37-cp37m-macosx_10_9_x86_64.whl Installing collected packages: pygame Successfully installed pygame-2.1.2
- Run the command python -m pygame –version to verify the installed Pygame moduel version.
$ python -m pygame --version pygame 2.1.2 (SDL 2.0.18, Python 3.7.3) Hello from the pygame community. https://www.pygame.org/contribute.html /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/bin/python: No module named pygame.__main__; 'pygame' is a package and cannot be directly executed
3. How To Fix The ImportError: No module named ‘pygame’.
3.1 Question.
- I installed pygame 1.9.2 in Windows, and my python version is 3.5. But when I import the pygame module in the python source code, it shows the error ImportError: No module named ‘pygame’. How can I fix this error?
>>> import pygame Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module> import pygame ImportError: No module named 'pygame'
3.2 Answer1.
- Below are the steps to install Pygame 1.9.2 on Python 3.5.1 for Windows, you can try it.
- After you successfully install Python 3.5, you should write down the Python 3.5 installed folder for later use.
- Download the wheel file pygame-1.9.2a0-cp35-none-win32.whl and save it to the folder python35/Scripts.
- Open a dos window and cd to the python35/Scripts folder, then run the below command.
pip3 install pygame-1.9.2a0-cp35-none-win32.whl
- If you can not run the above command successfully, you can run the below command instead.
python -m pip install pygame-1.9.2a0-cp35-none-win32.whl
- Now when you import the pygame module, the error should disappear.
3.3 Answer2.
- I also meet such an error, but the reason is different.
- I installed multiple Python versions on my Windows, and I installed pygame library successfully into one of my Python versions.
- But my IDE used python interpreter does not contain the pygame library, so when I import pygame in my IDE the error is shown.
- After I select the python interpreter that has installed pygame library, the error disappear.
- wish this can help you too.
3.4 Answer3.
- This error happened when you do not install pygame successfully.
- Or you may have multiple Python versions installed, and pygame is installed in one of the python versions, but you import pygame in another python version.
- So you should make sure the pygame library has been installed in your python env, you can run the below command to check it.

4.2 Answer1.
- From the message you provide, we can see that you just install the Pygame version 1.9.6. And your python version is 3.9.
- But Pygame 1.9.6 does not support python 3.9 now. So you had better use python 3.8 instead.
- Or you can install Pygame 2.0 with the command pip install pygame==2.0.0, Pygame 2.0 support python 3.9.
- You can also download the Pygame wheel file from https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame, it contains the wheel file pygame‑1.9.6‑cp39‑cp39‑win32.whl that meet your needs.
