Terraria patch confirmed
Terraria’s 1.4.5.7 patch was confirmed and brings buffs for early-game Mages — new Gem Staves abilities and crossplay progress are part of the update (x.com). Also this week Epic gave away Lucky Goal until March 29 and Train Sim World 6 landed among Xbox freebies, both promos players were talking about across socials (x.com).
Re-Logic published a "State of the Game" update on March 26, 2026 that says work on the 1.4.5.7 post‑launch patch is ongoing and will "focus mostly on balance," coming after the March hotfix 1.4.5.6 which the team described as a bug/exploit patch. (steamcommunity.com). PCGamesN reports lead communicator Ted "Loki" Murphy teased a new attack for Gem Staves as part of the balance work, calling it a targeted change to improve early‑magic options. (pcgamesn.com). The official Terraria wiki lists "new attack patterns for gem staves" in its upcoming features and outlines plans for built‑in cross‑play that will connect Desktop, Console and Mobile; it also notes Desktop–Mobile play can be done via dedicated servers today but native Console cross‑play is still pending. (terraria.wiki.gg). Steam and the March State update say Console and Mobile builds are "chasing right behind" PC while the team prepares cross‑play, and Re‑Logic is working on console crafting UI improvements to better match the PC experience.

The update also confirmed fulfillment of the Terraria Board Game Kickstarter is underway, with copies reaching backers during the March rollout according to the studio post. (steamcommunity.com). Separately, Epic Games made Lucky Goal free to claim on the Epic Games Store until March 29 (the game’s usual price is $4.99), and Xbox's Free Play Days ran Train Sim World 6: Thomas & Friends Edition free for Game Pass members from March 26–29, with progress carrying over if players buy the game afterward.
