Of course, you can always head inside for some Terraria - and we do hope that we will be a big part of your summer plans! So, what's going on in the world of our various development and community teams? Let's dig right on in and find out!

TERRARIA TURNS TEN!

10th Art 2108x460.png

Oh yeah, in case you missed it, our favorite sandbox adventure game officially turned ten years old a few days ago. We have been really enjoying the various outpourings of love, tributes, and more as we take some time to celebrate with each of you. If we haven't said it lately, we really appreciate you and your support over the years - it is what drives us and makes all of this possible. The celebration isn't over yet, though!

Be sure to check out the festivities - past, present, and future - on our 10th Anniversary Thread, linked below!



Also, you still have time to enter our amazing 10th Anniversary Contest - where you can win prizes that include Steam Wallet cash, pin sets from Sanshee, or even the grand prize - your very own amazing Forest Biome display set from our friends at Animegami Studios!

TMODLOADER NEWS - TML TEAM



Hello everyone!

Another month has flown by, and the TML Team - along with all of our amazing contributors - have remained hard at work to bring tModLoader up to the 1.4 era.

You can see our current milestone at tModLoader/tModLoader (But note that the completion percentage doesn't mean anything, because issues and PRs don't have weights.)

An official alpha/beta version remains very likely - more on that as we have more to share. After we're done with that testing and any related fixes, release will be very close! At this time, however, we still can't give anyone an ETA for the full release.

Developers who are willing to contribute may do so by doing PRs to the tModLoader/tModLoader branch. (See tModLoader/tModLoader)

TMODLOADER ISSUES/BUGS

The Re-Logic team does not directly develop TML, so bugs with TML are best reported via the links below.

PlayStation 4, XBOX ONE, Nintendo Switch - DR STUDIOS

XBOX & PLAYSTATION

May is here, bringing with it hotter temps and a steady flow of progress on Journey's End for Consoles. The team has cleared two more milestone gates since last we checked in with you here, and we remain on pace for our previously-revealed Q3 2021 launch window. We cannot narrow that down yet at this point as there are still a good number of nebulous pieces on the list where we cannot make a confident prediction either way time-wise. We will seek to tighten up the launch timing as soon as we feel good about doing so - but for now, just know that everything is very much in the green in terms of our plans.

Now, all that said, you know we wouldn't leave you without some sneak peek into what we have been working on this month. Let's take a quick look, shall we?


Nothing cools off a hot day more than some Blood Moon Fishing, right? (oh and you can catch a gander at the latest iterations of the UI while you are at it ;) )

We have a few other things that we are looking forward to sharing... but they are not quite ready for prime time just yet.

NINTENDO SWITCH


Repeating what we shared above, we expect to have Journey's End for Switch out later this year, just a bit behind Xbox and PlayStation.

MOBILE - DR STUDIOS

Hello everyone!

The console train keeps moving steadily down the track - which means every day closer to Console Journey's End is also one day closer to our return to progress on Mobile. We cannot wait to be able to bring Mobile (and Console) up to content parity and then start exploring what future opportunities that will unlock. Hang with us just a bit longer, mobile fans - your time for news will come soon enough! :)



Thanks as always for the honor and trust you give us each month to work on Terraria - it is not a responsibility that we take lightly, and we look forward to bringing more amazing things to you all as we move forward.

Greetings Terrarians!

Here's the latest and greatest happenings on the Community side of things. Thanks as always for being the most engaged and awesome gaming Community ever!


TERRARIA MERCHANDISE UPDATES

We still have a handful of partnerships that remain under wraps, but that we will be revealing just as soon as the time is right. That said, what better time than the State of the Game to check in on news from our existing partners as well as to shine a light on some other things that are in the works?

ANIMEGAMI FOREST BIOME UPDATE

Our great friends at Animegami Studios have released a sneak peek into the pre-production prototype of the upcoming Forest Biome Display. This will be available for preorder (and you will get to see its final form - in color this time!) in the very near future. Definitely something that you will want to keep an eye on!

Neat! Any plans to update the achievements for the consoles? I know there's in-game achievements, but those just don't feel the same as ones integrated with the system.
The game currently only awards the main host with system achievements, however the in-game achievement gives it to both players, so just adding a call to the system achievements where those in-game achievements are would finally make this game co-op achievement friendly as well not to mention adding a bunch of other trophies to aim for.
 
I am shocked by the results of the contests. I have no words to describe it.
I had SO much work put in those entries, and people who did it with low effort won!! This is unbelievable!
I'm so sad to see this.. My work was not appretiated, it was... thrown in the trash.
I'm losing faith in Terraria's Developers.
And I don't know if I put much work in the next contest.
;(😭

There were many people who didn't get there work in but just be happy that you got to Participate in it
 
No, I can't.
These entries are not low effort. Some look absolutely stunning! I agree your entry looked nice too but please appreciate other people’s efforts. This is from a guy who has been ignored by everyone his whole life, and this forum welcomed me like a celebrity. Be proud of the people in it.
 
But did you see my entries??? Would you expect some of those entries that won to be BETTER than mine or other people's entries? I can't really understand what was the criteria used by the Devs to conclude that.
Okay, I saw it, I get your point, I was once like you. If you really are compassionate about Terraria, you would enter the contest, not seeking for a reward. That’s how I entered, not seeking for the reward, but being a part of this community. Being included is better than nothing.
