Terraria 1.4.4 update: How to download, patch notes, and all you need to know

The 1.4.4 update for Terraria was just released on September 28. The highly anticipated Labor of Love update is finally here, and gamers are excited about all the possibilities it brings to the game. The action-adventure sandbox game has been out for 11 years and hasn't had too many major updates, so this one is a big one for devoted players.

There is no cross-platform multiplayer for the game, but to eventually introduce that, the 1.4.4 update is the first simultaneous release to all platforms. Re-Logic maintains that they want to make the game cross-platform in the future.
