It's no fun, having no idea if cool games are coming to your favourite platform, waiting and hoping that one day they'll be brought over. Chin up, you downtrodden consoleers, Re-logic's digging-building-crafting-killing sandbox Terraria is indeed coming to consoles too, having sold a whopping 1.6 million copies on PC. The downloadable release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 is lined up for early 2013.

"To see it come so far is a complete shock, especially after such humble beginnings," creator Andrew Spinks said in the announcement. "It's always been my dream to have as many people as possible know and enjoy Terraria as much as I have, and this is another big step in that direction!"

Spinks also teased that the console version, handled by Mad Dog McCree 3DS porter Engine Software, will contain mysterious new "additional features."

We have three screenshots of Terraria on consoles, but here's an older trailer from the PC original demonstrating the sort of shenanigans you can look forward to:
