London, March 22nd, 2024 - Payload Studios has officially launched TerraTech Worlds into Steam Early Access ($29.99 / £24.99). Built from the ground up in Unreal Engine 5 and optimised for large scale simulation, the sandbox survival successor to the million selling TerraTech will now begin its roadmap journey.

Surpassing 200,000 wishlists and a top-ten success during February’s Next Fest, TerraTech Worlds launches as one Steam’s most anticipated sandbox games of 2024, with the PvE builder offering players a unique multiplayer experience that supports up to 6 players. 
 

 

"With TerraTech Worlds we wanted to create a rich, immersive sandbox that drew from our ten years of experience working on its predecessor, TerraTech.” says CEO and Founder, Russ Clarke. “With this ground-up reimagining, we wanted to provide players with a deep, layered experience that brought together immersive and diverse landscapes, expressive base building and automation, spherical planets, oceans and terrain deformation - so fans of games like Satisfactory and Valheim can enjoy those types of experiences, combined with TerraTech's intuitive block-building gameplay.”

 

TerraTech Worlds invites players to delve into a vast 300km² planet teeming with diverse biomes, dynamic weather, bandit factions and natural hazards. Explore dense forests, discover inspiring vistas, and engage your creativity as you design, craft, and build vehicles, bases, and automated factories. Forge alliances and band together with up to six fellow Prospectors in online co-op to maximise your chances of survival, raiding enemy bases and conquering new territory. Prepare to immerse yourself in a richly detailed world where collaboration is essential to survive the alien frontier.
 

TerraTech Worlds is available to buy now on Steam with a public roadmap that will deliver content for more than 12 months, including fresh planets, boss battles and much more. Further information about TerraTech Worlds can be found via X, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook and Instagram.
