Terraria is an action-packed adventure game where the world is your oyster. Build, craft, or mine – it is all up to you!
- Terraria is a 2D sandbox game with gameplay that revolves around exploration, building, crafting, combat, survival, and mining, playable in both single-player and multiplayer modes. 1 2 The game has a 2D sprite tile-based graphical style reminiscent of the 16-bit sprites found on the Super NES.
- Terraria is arguably a title made up of DIY fetch-quests, as the majority of your playtime will be spent hunting down the raw materials that you'll need to craft new items, equipment, and home.
Released back in 2011, this game has sold millions of copies worldwide and for a good reason.
It offers hours upon hours of gameplay and the random world generation system ensures that no two playthroughs are exactly alike.
The gameplay in Terraria is very straightforward, WASD for movement, interactions with left click and jump with spacebar. As you move further into the game you can get grappling hooks to aid in traversing mines, wings to fly, mounts to move faster and an array of weaponry from melee and ranged to magical and summoning.
Build a house, build a castle, build a hole in the ground – the choice is yours! One of the most appealing factors of Terraria is the ability to play co-op with friends online.
This leads many gamers to wonder if Terraria supports cross-platform play. With so many platforms to play on, it isn't a straight forward yes or no.
Windows, Mac, and Linux
If you've bought the game on any of these platforms, congratulations! You and all of your friends can play together so long as you are on one of these platforms.
This means if your friend owns Terraria for the Switch or PS4 or any other console, they will not be able to play with you on PC.
Mobile (iOS/Android)
If you have an iPhone and your friend has an Android phone, you two can play together! Terraria does support cross-platform play on mobile devices.
PS3, PS4, PSVita
If you own Terraria on any of these Sony products, you can play with friends who also own Terraria on one of them.
Terraria supports cross-platform play between any of the different PlayStation consoles it has been released on.
Xbox 360, Xbox One
If you are a fan of Microsoft and bought Terraria on either recent Xbox console, then you can play with your friends as long as they are also playing on an Xbox.
Terraria does support cross-platform play between the Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
Does Terraria Support Cross-platform Play on Other Consoles?
As of right now, if your above console or platform wasn't listed, Terraria will not be cross-platform playable. This means that you cannot play on a PS4 and play with your friend who has the Switch port.
With the final update to Terraria coming in 2020, we expect that it will stay this way. If there is any news about cross-platform updates coming to Terraria, we will be sure to edit this post and keep it up to date for the community.
Ps4 Terraria Version
Greetings, Terrarians!
Welcome to launch day for Terraria 1.4.1 on PC! As we have alluded to in previous news items and spoilers around this update, Terraria 1.4.1 is primarily focused on adding in pieces that were not quite ready in time for the Journey's End launch date - along with more fixes, balance tweaks, and a few new tidbits that we decided to add along the way. Located below, you will find the full changelog for Terraria 1.4.1
So, what all does Terraria 1.4.1 contain? Here are some of the bigger topline tidbits of note - but again, refer to the full changelog for a more complete accounting of things.
VANITY CONTEST WINNER SETS
As promised, we have added the winning Vanity Sets from the Journey's End Vanity Design Contest! These turned out really well, and we are beyond excited to see these in game. Be sure to once again congratulate the winners and thank them for making such awesome designs possible!
- Plaguebringer
- Wandering Ronin
- The Timeless Traveler
- Floret Protector
- Capricorn
- Bonus winner: TV Head!
All six of these are craftable with pre-Hardmode materials of various sorts, so that all players can experience these awesome vanity sets! Thanks to everyone who participated and voted in the Vanity contest, and especially to our winners!
CREDITS
Who made all of this anyway? At long last, Terraria on PC has it's own credits! Upon defeating the Moon Lord for the first time, be sure to stay tuned for an awesome throwback credit sequence, including an exclusive never-before-heard music track! Want to see it again? You can access the Credits from the main menu at any time.
The Music Box (Journey's End) is now created by recording the Credits music sequence. Additionally, using it in a normal accessory slot will play the Credits sequence in-game, while using it in a social slot will only play the music.
NEW NPC - THE PRINCESS
How will you discover and unlock this regal companion? What does she do? You will have to explore and find out on your own!
NEW ACHIEVEMENTS
Who doesn't like Achievements, right? Updated for the Journey's End era, we have included a handful of new goals for you to chase down!
NEW ITEMS
We have included a handful of new items - with several focused on filling out the early/pre-hardmode Summoner options. We are personally fans of the new Flinx-based Summoner gear.
VANITY OVERHAUL
Vanity Overhaul? What exactly do we mean here? Well - the way armors and vanity sets used to work was a bit limiting, particularly in regards to the way 'back' items worked. So, we made it better! For just one example: why pick between showing Wings or a Cape, for example, when you can have both!
Armors and vanity items which draw on the back (backpacks, tails, wings, and capes) are now no longer mutually exclusive. This means that you can now have one of any of those four categories all displaying at the same time. Previously, only one of those could ever be visible at a time (for instance, if you had visible wings, you could not ever see a cape, backpack, or tail).
Here is a visual explaining what we mean:
Prior to Terraria 1.4.1: The use of visible wings prevented capes from being visible, while the use of capes prevented shields from being visible.
In 1.4.1, these elements no longer conflict with each other, and can be used together in various combinations
There are even more overhauls to the vanity system to explore, so be sure to check out the full changelog for all the juicy details!
QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES
Beyond Bug Fixes, we always want to try and enhance the user experience as much as possible. Here are just a few of the ways we have explored doing so in Terraria 1.4.1:

QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES
Beyond Bug Fixes, we always want to try and enhance the user experience as much as possible. Here are just a few of the ways we have explored doing so in Terraria 1.4.1:
- The Journey Mode duplication menu has been overhauled, with the addition of several new filters to break up some of the larger categories
- Additionally, the Misc option in the duplication menu should more properly encompass items that do not fall under any other category
- Torch God now plays an Otherworldly track when that setting is toggled
- Bestiary now indicates if a drop is Wave-based/if it only drops after a certain wave in Frost Moon and Pumpkin Moon
- Plantero's Sombrero has made its triumphant return
- Reorganized menu settings for resolution/fullscreen/windowed borderless to all use the same sub-menu, to reduce confusion
- Updated FNA (Mac/Linux related)
- RGB support is now available for SteelSeries game peripherals
- Updated localization for all languages up to 1.4 (some 1.4.1 content may still be untranslated, and these translations will come in an upcoming hotfix)
BALANCE CHANGES
As you likely are aware, Terraria: Journey's End contained a ton of changes to balance across the entire progression of the game. As with any changes of this nature, everyone had thoughts and feedback. We invited everyone to weigh in on this robust discussion in our Official Balance/Feedback Thread - and you did not disappoint! With that feedback in hand - along with our own post-launch thoughts - we have made even more balance changes that we hope will bring things ever-closer to feeling 'just right' for most folks. A little bit of everything has been impacted here, so we really encourage you to read up before you are surprised! :)
