The development team at Re-Logic announces that it is planning to launch its indie hit Terraria on both the PlayStation 4 from Sony and the Xbox One from Microsoft before the end of the year, allowing fans to experience the action adventure mechanics on next-gen devices.

The company says that it will be showing the PS4 version of the title at the upcoming E3 2014 event and that it will demo both cross-play and cross-save compatibility with the PlayStation Vita handheld.

The official announcement explains that, "All of the 1.2 content will be packed into our Terraria Next Gen releases alongside some brand new functionality! The PS4 and Xbox One versions are slated for release later in 2014. Look out for more Terraria news and maybe some sneak-peak screens next week!"

Re-Logic is not yet ready to say exactly when it plans to launch Terraria on the new devices.

The game has performed well on the PC, on mobile devices and on current-gen consoles and it is just the most recent in a long string of indie titles to be delivered on the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One.

Minecraft, which served as inspiration, is also set to arrive on the two platforms before the end of summer.
