Terraria Journey’s End confirmed for Switch
Switch will be getting the major Journey’s End update for Terraria, it’s been announced. Players on Nintendo’s console can access the new content starting on January 4, 2022.
Journey’s End contains a truckload of new content. It comes with new modes, bosses, enemies, and quality of life changes.
One of the major highlights Terraria Switch players can look forward to from Journey’s End is Master mode “where combat difficulty intensifies but each defeated boss offers unique rewards.” Journey mode is also included for extra options that include item duplication, weather control, adjustable spawn rates, difficulty sliders, and much more.
The bullet hell-inspired Empress of Light and the imposing Queen Slime are among the new bosses. A bestiary is also included to help track enemies, allies, and critters. That’s on top of a new golf feature, new weather-based events like Lantern Nights and Meteor Showers, new biomes such as Graveyards and the Oasis, and new music including the “Journey’s End” title theme and a track from Terraria contest winner Xenon and DSniper.
As far as quality of life changes are concerned, many are included in Terraria Journey’s End. Some of the highlights include Block Swap to make building more intuitive, Void Vaults to help manage player inventory, graphical overhauls, boss health bars, UI improvements including more customization, and a split-screen interface. Also worth noting are Town Pylons and NPC Happiness that expand the town system, eventually granting the ability to build a teleportation network to towns around the world.
