Terrariais apparently entering the “final stretch” of updates for the 2D crafting and exploration game (though whether this will actually be it remains to be seen), and it looks like developers Re-Logic are seeing off their 2D Minecraft-a-like in style. Emphasis on the ssssstyle.

Teasing some new features arriving with update 1.4.5, described as being the game’s final major update - just like the last few “final” updates over the last nine (!) years - Re-Logic dropped that roller skates would be added as a new bit of traversal gear, letting you get yourJet Set Radioon as you whizz around maps. You’ll even be able to place blocks and build while you zoom around on wheels, and grind along any rails you’ve placed - a secretOlliOllispin-off, perhaps?
Though Re-Logic have dropped various teases of what to expect from 1.4.5, the team say even they’re still not sure exactly what else the big update will include - or when it will arrive, just yet. “As always, the timing will be ‘when it’s ready’”, thelatest dev blogstates, adding the news that over 100,000 player-made packs and worlds have been released through the game’s Steam Workshop library.

Re-Logic head Andrew Spinkspreviously saidthat Terraria’s endless cycle of claiming an update will be its last only to keep on going - something that’s been happening since at least 2015 - was due to the game’s enduring popularity. In the almost-decade since, the team have added expanded mod support, golf, thousands of items, crossovers with other games like Don’t Starve andDead Cells, and much more.
Will 1.4.5 actually break the cycle and let Terraria - and its long-working creators - breathe? (Or, more accurately, as Spinks suggested, working on a second project.) We’ll presumably find out… eventually.
