Upcoming features

This page is about features that have been announced by official game developers. Please remember that none of this is guaranteed to be included in the game.

Some of the following information hasn't been explicitly announced yet, and are only listed upon assumption of information released by the developers (i.e. screenshots).

1.1 (next patch)
1.1 is planned to be the first major content update. Its release date is currently unknown. However, Redigit has recently stated that the soonest it will be out is November, but might be as late as December. It will be a very large content update, akin to a "free expansion pack," according to Redigit.

New items

 * Hallowed Seeds, which can be planted to create an "anti-corruption" biome (which stops the Corruption from spreading).


 * New sets of items. The new ores can only be found after completing certain tasks:
 * Set of Cobalt items:
 * Cobalt Ore
 * Cobalt Armor (re-introduction).
 * Set of Mithril items:
 * Mithril Ore
 * Mithril Armor
 * Drill (mining device).
 * Set of red items:
 * Red-colored armor (appears to have a vibrating effect). It also appears to have more than one "form".
 * Red-colored lance/spear/halberd.
 * Red-colored rocket/drill.
 * Red-colored chainsaw/gun.
 * Set of white/gold items:
 * White/gold-colored broadsword (appears to give off particle effect).
 * White/gold-colored axe/hammer/hamaxe/waraxe/battleaxe.
 * New flail.
 * Holy Water.
 * A purple version of Holy Water.
 * At least five new accessories.
 * Light blue-colored boots which appear to be a variant/sprite update of the Hermes Boots (or Rocket Boots).
 * Light blue-colored teardrop-shaped item. Looks to be a balloon with a cloud inside.
 * Some sort of rectangular device which appears to have a screen (could be a sprite update for the Depth Meter).
 * Orange-colored snorkeling headgear.
 * Light blue-colored shield with a pattern on it (which could be the sprite update for the Cobalt Shield).
 * Torches can be colored when combined with gems (gem color would correspond to the torch color, similar to how Phaseblades work).
 * Amethyst/Purple Torch (Torch + Amethyst)
 * Topaz/Yellow Torch (Torch + Topaz)
 * Sapphire/Blue Torch (Torch + Sapphire)
 * Emerald/Green Torch (Torch + Emerald)
 * Ruby/Red Torch (Torch + Ruby)

 * At least 80 new sprites.
 * Unicorns.
 * A new race/class/vanity set (looks like a werewolf).
 * A new mob/spell/item that looks like a fairy and gives off light (could be an upgraded variant of the Orb of Light). It seems to follow the player. It may even possibly be a pet.
 * A new biome with colored trees and light blue-colored grass.
 * A new lighting engine:
 * Allows for colored light.
 * Torches give off a warmer glow.
 * Lighting is now much smoother, and the overall brightness has been increased.
