A New Update

Despite the announcements of Terraria's development ceasing, (Part 1 Part 2) Redigit has announced an update for the PC version, that will be bigger than the 1.1 update, and should be coming around the end of May. Redigit also has been giving away spoilers on the Terraria IRC Channel (his Twitter is very active too) and has revealed such things as Moss that grows on stone, a new Grappling Hook, and more!
