A sandbox game which expands the formula of the first TerraTech from 2018. TerraTech Worlds has us explore semi-alien planets using the machines we created ourselves. We can play alone or in online coop, gathering resources, creating bases, and defending against bandits.

TerraTech Worlds is the successor to the TerraTech game from 2018. Although it is not a direct sequel, the basic game mechanics are very similar. The independent studio Payload Studios, founded in 2013 by Vincent Scheurer and Russ Clarke, who previously worked on mobile games, is responsible for both productions.

Mechanics

The gameplay of TerraTech Worlds is based on three fundamental elements: building machines and bases, exploring the open world, and gathering resources and fighting.

We create structures from components obtained during the game, which can be freely combined with each other. Machines can be adapted for many purposes, starting with the way they move - on land, water, or in the air. More specialized equipment includes radars, terraforming equipment and various resource extraction tools, as well as a wide arsenal of weapons. The bases serve us as a logistics center and warehouse, as well as shelters that we can expand, improve and strengthen.

We use constructed machines to explore the surface of planets in search of raw materials necessary for further expansion and more technologically advanced solutions. In an alien environment, apart from natural threats, we can encounter space bandits, fight them, and even rob the aggressors' base after victory.
