TerraTech News

Hey Prospectors,

It's Matt here with a new Community Challenge for you!

This time we're taking on both land and air... in the same Tech!

I challenge you to build the quickest Duathlon Tech you can. What is a Duathlon Tech? Good question, it's a Tech that can be driven on the ground and in the air.

So how is this going to work? Well, you'll load into the 'Home Run' Gauntlet track, build your Duathlon Tech (make sure it can drive and fly), then record your fastest back-to-back ground and air runs. Upload the video to the submissions thread and I'll combine both times to give you your overall time. The quickest time wins! There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places.

It should look something like this:

For full details and to submit your runs see this thread on our Official Forums.

Good luck and have fun!

TerraTech is free to play this weekend.

From the 1st to the 8th of April you can jump straight into TerraTech without spending a dime.

Team up with friends in Co-op Campaign, go head-to-head in Deathmatch, or just build to your heart's content. Enjoy all the prospecting pleasure TerraTech has to offer FOR FREE!

Like what you see? Want to continue the fun after the free weekend? Well, you can buy the full game and all DLC for 50% off for the duration of the event.

NOTE: Once the free weekend event has finished and you do not own TerraTech you will no longer have access to the game.

Hey Prospectors,

Matt here with a brand new update for you. Don't worry this is an actual update.

Update 1.4.8 introduces a new Venture Cross Country Time Trial as well as some tweaks to the older Venture races.

Suzie Vroom is really putting you through your paces in the new Cross Country Time Trial. It's a bumpy one so come prepared with backup front spoilers!

We've also adjusted the old Venture race missions so they now spawn in places that will make them easier to complete.

Enjoy!
