Desktop version

Version
The Desktop version or PC version of Terraria refers to the Windows, macOS, and Linux PC versions. These versions are produced entirely by Re-Logic, Terraria's original developer (whereas the current  Console version is being worked upon by DR Studios, a third-party developer.) Because of this, updates always come to the Desktop version first.

Note that Desktop version on this wiki only refers to the vanilla Desktop version, and  tModLoader is used to refer to the current stable release version of tModLoader (currently 1.3.5.3).

All three desktop versions are on the same update path and are updated together, sharing a common version number, though each has its own installation package. All can be purchased/downloaded through Steam or GOG.com.

macOS and Linux versions became available starting with version 1.3.0.7 as a beta test package on July 23, 2015, and in 1.3.0.8 as a full release on August 12, 2015. All prior versions were Windows only.
