Terraria Headed to XBLA, PSN

505 Games has announced that side-scrolling block builder Terraria will be released on consoles. Set to hit Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network, Terraria will be released in early 2013 with “an emphasis on crafting and exploration set in vast and vibrant worlds.”

Terraria is described by 505 as “a side-scrolling, action-adventure sandbox game” that’s “more than a mere block building game” where “players’ experience is limited only by their own imaginations.” More than 1.6 million copies of the PC version have been sold to date.

“I can’t say how excited I am to finally have Terraria come to Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 system! To see it come so far is a complete shock, especially after such humble beginnings,” said Terraria creator Andrew Spinks. “It’s always been my dream to have as many people as possible know and enjoy Terraria as much as I have and this is another big step in that direction. It’s been awesome working with 505 Games and I can’t wait for everyone to see the additional features that they’ve been able to bring to this new edition of the game.”

Terraria was originally released on PC in May 2011. For more, read our Terraria review and why Terraria is a better game than Minecraft.
