PC PC is getting controller support!

[Cenx]

Good afternoon Terrarians!

With the launch of 1.3.1 just around the corner we are pleased to announce a new feature coming to Terraria on PC; Controller support!!!

Controller support will include Ps4/Xbox One presets as well as custom support!

Everyone spam your thanks to @Yoraiz0r for this painful addition to the game and @Lazure for providing the assets!
(Also thanks to all our testers behind the scene!)

Huh... Not what I was expecting, but that's pretty cool. I wonder how it's going to work, with Terraria relying heavily on using a mouse.

 

[Aurora3500]

Excellent! This is very exciting to see PC Terraria be compatible with Xbox Controllers!

 

[Jetstreme ∞]

Now PC players can finally analog-stick it to 'em

 

[Oleg34518]

Finally! Now we can control our characters with ease.

 

[SteveisNoob]

Wow, exciting stuff! PC with console controllers will be great! Thanks for everyone on Re-Logic!

DISAPPOINTED.

I thought it was gonna be something more like this

but hey, controller support is still nice, now my Trust controller will have some use outside of emulators n' stuff

*Generic comment where I praise the controller support, only to never use the feature at all*


Jokes aside, even if I won't necessarily use the feature, it's still cool to know that the option exists if I ever want to try it out. Maybe I'll try it as a challenge playthrough or something.

Oh god, I was just waiting for this. Finally my controller will have an use without third-party tools!

 

[Beezwax&Nectar]

I am literally considering getting a controller just for terraria now. HYPE!!!

 

[ppowersteef]

Controllers,

That's getting more interesting, though I'm really used with using my mouse though X3

 

[Deamterr]

I congratulate the people who can play on controller because I am not
