Terraria 1.3 Release Coming Later This Month With Many Improvements

Terraria 1.3 is slated to be released in a few days on June 30, and coming with it are 800 new items, new mini-Biomes, achievements, a harder 'expert mode' and “more unknown stuff.” Why does this matter? Because in July, following the 1.3 release, there are going to be Mac and Linux ports of the game!

Terraria describes itself it as "The very world is at your fingertips as you fight for survival, fortune, and glory. Delve deep into cavernous expanses, seek out ever-greater foes to test your mettle in combat, or construct your own city - In the World of Terraria, the choice is yours! Blending elements of classic action games with the freedom of sandbox-style creativity, Terraria is a unique gaming experience where both the journey and the destination are as unique as the players themselves!"

No word yet on whether this will be a native port or merely wrapped in Wine. For those wanting to try it out now, ahead of the port's release, it currently has a platinum rating in the Wine Application Database.

Terraria is available on Steam and GOG for $9.99 USD. Details on upcoming features can be found via this page.
