Good day Terrarians!
In late 2014, we saw a number of updates for Terraria on Console and Mobile – including Mobile 1.2 and the addition of the expanded Holiday/Xmas content to our console versions. At the time, we also made the commitment to everyone that we would be looking to provide more frequent updates heading into 2015 – including one that we had planned to have live in “Early 2015”.
Well, we are quite pleased to announce to everyone that we intend to stick to that commitment, and that starts now: The Frost Moon is coming to Console Terraria (all platforms) over the next 2-3 weeks!
For those of you familiar with the PC version of Terraria, the Frost Moon is the second of the two “Moon Invasion” events in the game (and demonstrably harder than the Pumpkin Moon which we added to Console last year). This event will test the mettle and ingenuity of even the most hardy Terrarian warriors as they make their best attempts to hold off a terrifying horde of frozen monstrosities in search of challenge and loot.
We are very much looking forward to seeing how everyone enjoys the Frost Moon – make sure you share your experiences with us!
As always, be sure to report any bugs or other technical issues directly to us via the contact information listed below or via the telephone numbers listed in the Information tab on our profile (try the links below first please!). We will do our absolute best to resolve any bugs/issues just as quickly as possible.
Thanks to you all for your support of Terraria on Console – we have big plans for 2015, so stay tuned!
