Terraria State of the Game – October 2026

Re-Logic and DR Studios are preparing the final touches for Terraria 1.4.6, which introduces Crossplay Phase One. The team finished development earlier this month and started extensive testing. Because this update adds a major feature across multiple platforms, Terraria 1.4.6 requires strict review during the submission process. A recent round of testing uncovered a few minor issues that need fixing before submission begins. Re-Logic expects to submit the update next week if testing goes well. Once first-party partners approve the update, Crossplay Phase One will launch.
