It is planned to be released in 2019. 1.3.6 will also act as a base for "secret Terraria update plans".

1.4
Development for 1.4 has not started yet, although a statement by Cenx on the official Terraria Discord server mentioned that the 1.4 update will have "a form of creative mode". This mode "won't just give you everything. It will all need to be earned", unlike traditional creative modes in other games.

Terraria Series
Following the release of the Terraria 1.3 update, lead developer Redigit had moved on to working on another project, though developers Yoraiz0r and Skiphs were continuing to update Terraria. Redigit returned to work with the team to develop 1.3.5, and is heavily involved in 1.3.6.

A Spin-off of Terraria, Terraria: Otherworld, was under development, until it has been cancelled.

Redigit stated that he plans to later release Terraria 2, a separate game from the canceled Terraria: Otherworld, although little information is known about the nature or content in the upcoming sequel.
