Topic: Terraria-Nintendo Switch

Promised in 2017, Terraria is now set to hit the Switch this Thursday, who is ready?

Me

Just waiting for that physical release from 505 Games. Originally scheduled for July but it was recently changed to TBD. Great game, this will be a triple-dip for me. Wii U, PS Vita, and soon Switch.

I am going to grab the digital but will also get the physical once released. I have bought this game at least five times before, love it.

Waiting for Physical version. SD space is a premium now.

Did Somebody buy it already if so how is it running?

@SwitchForce This game is just 227 MB, maybe 300 with updates. It's hardly eating up any space, especially for the content. But yeah, buying it physical is 227 MB saved for something else that you can't get on retail.

If you find your Switch memory's space running out, you can archive old, unplayed demos, apps, or games.
And you can delete old saves, especially the saves from demos that you never play again. (Save files need to be deleted separately from the Game files).

@SwitchForce
For what it's worth, you can pre-order the physical release of Terraria for £23.99, but you can get a 128gb microSD for just £16.49.

I've got the physical on pre-order regardless of storage space, I've put over 1200 hours into Terraria and I want a permanent copy of the game.

A bit of a shame the physical release is still two months away, but I also put hundreds of hours into Terraria and [also] just want to have it physically.

EDIT: Hmm, just looked around and seems like all the dates are just placeholders. ^^' So I guess no idea yet when it will release.

The game has been released a few days ago (at least in Europe).

I've made a video showing the switch version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz9jfa67MyU

It's german, so just turn off the sound . You'll see how fast it is to create a new world and generally how the game runs (spoiler: it runs great so far)

@SKTTR If you were talking to me, the physical edition hasn't released yet.

Hmm, according to Gamestop the North America physical release is scheduled for August 27th.

UK seems to have 23rd August if anyone wants that....

I have a question about you Terraria players.

I am interested in the game but I realised that there is no creative/free build/sandbox mode.
Is there a way to just go in the game and build anything you like.
For example a castle on top of a hill or … anything?
Like in Minecraft (not creative mode) you are put in the world and you start collecting resources and you can build ANYTHING.

I want just that. To be able to build anything I desire without the game limiting me in any hard way.

Is it possible on the Switch version. (Physical of course!)

Waiting for the 1.3.5 update. Thought the release was happening today ?

@DennisNOR Thinking of getting this physically. Do you know the latest re. patches? Is co-op a thing yet?

Havent played it in awhile, so cant say. Its worth a buy anyway 😊 Im just to busy playing thru my backlog atm 😛@gcunit

@DennisNOR Thanks for the reply. I've shelved the idea for now though. I had a retailer voucher that was expiring last night so I had to use it - £30 off a £60 spend. Trouble was I already owned most of the Switch games they held. It came down to Terraria or a pre-order for Cadence of Hyrule. I actually already have a physical version of Terraria for Wii U that I haven't tried, so I went for Cadence instead.

what version is terraria currently on

Version 1.3.5.1 if you are talking about the switch version which i am assuming.
That means it is not fully up to date, missing the Journeys end update, still its really a lot of course.
Here is my source:https://terraria.gamepedia.com/Terraria_Wiki.
It got splitscreen though! Didn't know that
