Terraria State of the Game - February 2024
What started as a "quick and short" update to add our side of the Terraria x Dead Cells crossover content has morphed into a much larger update that we have been working on for over a year now. The team is currently going over more plans and ideas in regards to what else might make it into 1.4.5, timelines, etc. That said, we thought it might be a good time to go over some of the highlights of spoilers released during the development of 1.4.5. This may not capture them all... but it definitely grabs some of our faves. Enjoy! Of course, our good friends over at the Official Terraria Wiki keep a running list of upcoming features in case you want to dive deeper.
---
Terraria x Dead Cells crossover content (this is just the tip of that iceberg!) ---
A plethora of revamped banners are coming your way in 1.4.5 - we think these look so much better!
Boss Trophies are in on the makeover act as well! ---
Be the life of the party! Shimmer your friends for giggles with the Shimmer Gun! ---
New languages are coming for Terraria 1.4.5 - including Korean and Japanese! In case you missed it as well, we are currently working with the Community towards polishing the existing localizations - this was a huge success in the 1.3 era, so we are hoping for the best here again! ---
Revamped Character Creation screen and the all-new World Seed Menu! ---
Speaking of World Seeds, the team shared that new World Seeds are on the way - via World Seed Combos that have the chance to trigger unique experiences such as the Vampire Seed! What combos will you discover? ---
We have whipped up some new ways to enhance your Summoner exeperience. ---
More Transformations are on the way - including the Velociraptor and Bat! --- [previewyoutube=ssdHSDjuNjY;full][/previewyoutube]Take your throwing to the next level with the Magic Yo Yo Bag! --- [previewyoutube=sYasdtchrsg;full][/previewyoutube] [previewyoutube=92rRvE56pKA;full][/previewyoutube] New music tracks coming from Scott Lloyd Shelly - including some bosses finally getting their due! ---
Tree vs Axe - which side were you on? Either way, we all win with some new items! ---
Something fishy is definitely going on with these changes to fishing. --- [previewyoutube=MaemaMglZRU;full][/previewyoutube] [previewyoutube=h1jUekjXYdA;full][/previewyoutube]Rubblemaker has been hard at work upping its game! ---
Brand new toggleable filters - head back to the 80's CRT-style! --- [previewyoutube=eI2Ct6hm1kY;full][/previewyoutube]Spectator Mode for those unfortunate moments where you have prematurely perished but want to peek in on the party. ---
The Axearang - slice and dice those nasty trees from a safe distance! --- [previewyoutube=kt77BbP798c;full][/previewyoutube]Picking up your drops and placing them in chests is SO 1.4.4... ---
Slimevolution? What is this madness?!? ---
Throughout 2023, we saw Crossplay creep ever closer - though this is going to be a post-1.4.5 addition (if we are successful!), we would be remiss to not share these again! --- We hope you enjoyed this quick overview of the spoilers thus far from 1.4.5 - of course, this doesn't even cover everything that was spoiled. There is also plenty more to come as well as things that you will have to discover on your own when the update comes out later this year.

Hello everyone! The tModLoader team and our amazing community of contributors continue to improve tModLoader. On March 1, the monthly update release of tModLoader will go live. This month's release mainly contains bug fixes. This month we've continued our work to harden multiplayer by updating the server host scripts, made several improvements to Mod Config support, and fixed a dozen or so bugs. Modders and users should also keep an eye out for our monthly Steam announcement on the 1st where a complete listing of bug fixes and API changes for this month's release will be listed. The in-game news button on the main menu will direct you to the announcement once it is live. As always, if you are having issues of any sort, definitely don't hesitate to check out our FAQ on github or reach out to us at our Discord.
The TML Steam Workshop has over 6000 mods for you to enjoy! Coupled with the in-game mod browser, the TML Steam Workshop is a great way to explore what modded Terraria has to offer - check it out today by clicking the banner above!
More features, continuing to evolve and grow what TML can do... and getting ready for 1.4.5. As always, you can keep track the current progress and much more in real time at tModLoader/tModLoader (But note that the completion percentage doesn't mean anything, because issues and PRs don't have weights.) Developers who are willing to contribute may do so by doing PRs to the tModLoader/tModLoader branch. (See tModLoader/tModLoader)
As with our PC friends, you will find our spoilers-to-date for Terraria 1.4.5 in the recap. We have shared so much already, and there is still so much to come. We hope you enjoy this trip down 1.4.5 memory lane and are as excited as we are for it to come out in just a while longer! Until next time, Console & Mobile friends - thanks for all of your love and support!

Greetings Terrarians!
We hope that 2024 has been treating you right so far. Terraria development progress has ramped back up quickly, with productivity improving by leaps and bounds. We certainly do not want to jump to any conclusions here, but we still maintain that 2024 may be the best year for Terraria yet! Yes indeed, the team has a real spring in their step you might say. Well, I suppose we should hop right to it and dive into this State of the Game, right? Otherwise, before you know it, spring will have sprung.
Let's jump right in head-first, shall we?
