505 Games has today announced it will be bringing the independent block-building title Terraria to consoles.

Originally released in 2011 on PC by Re-logic studio, Terraria is a side-scrolling, action-adventure sandbox game, with an emphasis on crafting and exploration set in vast and vibrant worlds. Over 1.5 million players have purchased the game since release.

Andrew Spinks, creator of Terraria, stated: "I can’t say how excited I am to finally have Terraria come to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3! To see it come so far is a complete shock, especially after such humble beginnings. 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! I can’t wait for everyone to see the additional features that they’ve been able to bring to this new edition of the game."

Developed by Engine Software, Terraria will be available on Xbox LIVE Arcade and Playstation Network early 2013.
