After nearly three years, Terraria’s 1.4.5 update is totally, definitely, indisputably almost finished: ‘We are in the endgame now’

Terraria has been nearly finished for around half a decade now. Developer Re-Logic began the process of rounding out its 2D survival game way back in 2020, and it’s been almost three years since the most recent update—1.4.4. Now though, it really does seem like the end is nigh. Re-Logic has assured players that it is in the final, closing, penultimate stages of development of what may well be the game’s last update.

“We are well into the final push for Terraria 1.4.5,” Re-Logic wrote in the August issue of its monthly State of the Game update. In a sub-headed section titled “We are in the endgame now” the developers explained the situation: “The Re-Logic team sat down this past month for one last parsing of the list of items remaining. Some things were deferred and others prioritised—all in an effort to arrive at something we’ve been looking forward to for quite a while: an internal launch window.”
