Terraria 1.4.5 was set to be the game’s sixth final update in three years, up until it started getting delayed. True to the spirit of all those “final update” memes, the devs at Re-Logic keep pushing the update back because they keep adding more stuff to it.
“The teams remain hard at work on adding/tweaking/fixing content for Terraria 1.4.5,” Re-Logic explains in the latestState of the Game blog. “The finish line is starting to take shape, though we admittedly do have a couple of decent-sized ideas we want to discuss internally and decide if we should take those on before we can say for certain. How’s that for vague?”
Vagueness aside, it seems the devs are starting to get a pretty good idea of how much work is left on this update. “The team has the final list in-hand - as well as a few possible additional things that we might include, which we will decide in the next couple of weeks - and is hard at work with getting all of that content together,” they continue. “Terraria 1.4.5 has turned into quite an update, far exceeding our initial intent to ‘just do the Dead Cells content.’ We know the update process has been longer than usual (or anyone expected), but the end is in sight and we hope that it will not be too much longer before we can get and give a sense for timing.”
Terraria creator once again proves he’s his own game’s biggest fan by getting Zelda-inspired fan art of an iconic sword tattooed on his shoulder.
