Upcoming features

Following the release of the Terraria 1.3 update, very few concrete plans for future additions or updates have been mentioned by the developers. 1.3 was possibly the last update that lead developer Redigit would work on personally, though developers Yoraiz0r and Skiphs assisted in the development of 1.3 and plan to continue updating Terraria into the future. During 1.3's development, work began on another game in the franchise, Terraria: Otherworld, though it was additionally clarified that this is not the previously mentioned Terraria 2. Nearly no details exist on the nature or content of this sequel.

1.3.1
Referenced almost solely through creative director Cenx, the 1.3.1 update has been confirmed to be in the plans for Terraria's future and is hoped to be the next patch, barring any major issues that necessitate a 1.3.0.5 hotfix. Cenx has also gone on record as teasing / playing with the idea of an update to wires mechanics for 1.3.1 in her first initial mention of the then-potential update.
