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?

@rammfire if you read a few messages above, Matiiss gave the solution
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 ! 😄

Looking forward to pygame-2.1.3.

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?
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.
But, they’ve been unresponsive so far.
Bummer. First installs always seem to go sideways. 
Hello, everybody.
I followed what was written here, but when I entered the «import pygame» command, I got an error (Windows can not find import).
Who can help? Where is my mistake? Which direction in should I look for a solution to the problem?
Did you try to run import pygame directly in command prompt? You need to be in an actual Python shell to do that (which you can get to just by typing python
Did you try to run
import pygamedirectly in command prompt? You need to be in an actual Python shell to do that (which you can get to just by typingpython
Thank you! This little detail helped a lot.
I’m also trying to install from source at the moment and I’m getting the following error:
urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 503: Egress is over the account limit.
The pre-release wheel does work for me though.
thx!
This is not exactly a bug, it’s that there are no release wheels yet for 3.11, use
pip install pygame --pre(--prestands for pre release), it will installpygame2.1.3.dev8and you can use that, 2.1.3 is coming soon but I can’t tell for sure when.
thx!
FYI: pygame 2.1.3 had just been released with support for Python 3.11. A bit thank you to the maintainers!
I think this can be closed.

pip install pygame==1.9.1release --allow-external pygame --allow-unverified pygame
—
These are the steps that lead me to this command (I put them so people finds it easily):
$ pip install pygame
Collecting pygame
Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement pygame
Some externally hosted files were ignored as access to them may be unreliable (use --allow-external pygame to allow).
No distributions at all found for pygame
Then, as suggestes I allow external:
$ pip install pygame --allow-external pygame
Collecting pygame
Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement pygame
Some insecure and unverifiable files were ignored (use --allow-unverified pygame to allow).
No distributions at all found for pygame
So I also allow unverifiable:
$ pip install pygame --allow-external pygame --allow-unverified pygame
Collecting pygame
pygame is potentially insecure and unverifiable.

Hope it helps.
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.

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.
Pygame — библиотека для программирования игр на языке Python. К сожалению, при установке pygame могут возникнуть ошибки. Их возможностей несколько и их причины могут быть различными. В этой статье мы рассмотрим несколько проверенных способов, которые помогут исправить ошибки при установке pygame.
Проверьте версию Python
Pygame работает только на определенной версии Python. Обычно на сайте Pygame указывается, с какой версией она совместима. При установке проверьте, установлена ли у вас подходящая версия Python.
Обновите pip
Pygame можно установить через pip — инструмент управления пакетами Python. Если вы столкнулись с ошибками при установке pygame, то попробуйте обновить pip.
python -m pip install -U pip
Установите зависимости
Pygame может требовать установки дополнительных зависимостей. Например, для работы SDL нужны заголовочные файлы C. Существуют пакеты, которые устанавливают SDL сразу с заголовочными файлами внутри. Но если вам нужно установить его вручную, то попробуйте следующие команды:
sudo apt-get install libsdl-dev
sudo apt-get install libsdl-image1.2-dev
sudo apt-get install libsdl-mixer1.2-dev
sudo apt-get install libsdl-ttf2.0-dev
Установите самую последнюю версию Pygame
Pygame постоянно обновляется, и последняя версия может иметь меньше ошибок, чем предыдущие. Убедитесь, что вы пытаетесь установить последнюю версию Pygame с помощью следующей команды:
python -m pip install pygame
Запустите установочный файл Pygame вручную
Если все проверенные способы выше не работают, попробуйте скачать Pygame вручную и установить его. Скачайте архив, распакуйте его и запустите установочный файл setup.py.
python setup.py install
Заключение
Теперь у вас есть несколько проверенных способов, чтобы исправить ошибки при установке Pygame. Если ни один из этих способов не работает, попробуйте обратиться за помощью к сообществу Python или Pygame. Удачи!
