Standard and premium editions

DLC and expansion dependencies

A complete Terraria offer states whether extra content requires ownership of Terraria, a specific platform version, an online account, or another paid subscription.

System and online requirements

For Terraria on Windows PC, macOS, Linux, check current hardware requirements when applicable, Re-Logic or platform accounts, persistent internet, anti-cheat, controller or VR needs, and console online-service requirements.

Store, region and language

For Terraria, compatibility depends on matching the Terraria code or entitlement to the buyer's store account and country. State activation restrictions plus interface, subtitle, and audio languages for the exact SKU.

When to pause before buying
