Beloved sandbox game Terraria is now 13 years old, and as we approach the launch of the game’s sixth final update, the devs are inviting you to “check out the first final update.”
In thelatest State of the Game blog, developer Re-Logic billed a recently added Steam beta branch as the “first final update.” If you have Terraria installed on Steam, you can hop into the game properties, go to the betas page, and opt in to v1.1.2. That’ll take you back to a version of Terraria where, as the devsput it, “Hardmode was brand new and the mech bosses represented the ultimate challenge.”
Version 1.1.2 here was never intended to be a final update, with the moniker serving as an acknowledgement of that long-running meme. It also seems to be part of a series. As a very serious April Fools' joke, Re-Logic released Terraria: Undeluxe Edition back on April 1, offering another beta branch with version 1.0.6.1. That’s a version just late enough to include all the essential bug fixes, but still early enough to capture the early Terraria experience. Here’s hoping other snapshots of Terraria’s other biggest moments in time will follow.
