You play as a prospector exploring an uncharted alien world, where hostile factions, dangerous plants, and environmental hazards stand between you and new territory. You can venture out alone or with friends.
Mine and salvage resources, then build and customize vehicles for different tasks, from combat to resource gathering. Explore varied biomes by land, air, or water, take on enemy Techs and bases, and adapt your designs to the challenges you encounter.
Construct a base with powered machines and conduit networks to refine resources, produce supplies, and automate parts of production. Missions and exploration lead to new locations and parts, while reactor capacity and block attributes shape how you assemble your Techs; you can also reshape terrain around your base.
Players who enjoy the game often praise designing and piloting custom vehicles, building bases, exploring the planet, and taking on challenging enemies. Some also enjoy playing cooperatively and experimenting with its newer systems. Reviews are sharply divided, with recurring complaints about restrictive building and progression, vehicle handling, bugs, and performance.
TerraTech Worlds is an open-world, build-craft exploration adventure game, set on an uncharted alien world. Playing solo or with friends, you’ll explore your surroundings, craft unique vehicles, construct automated bases, and battle your way through natural hazards and challenging enemies to harness the power of your environment.

Expand your base with complex, automated production lines to refine minerals, scrap spare parts and keep you stocked with ammunition. Design intricate conduit networks to manage production, and scale up your power infrastructure to keep pace as the factory grows.

Create different Techs to meet different needs. From mining to combat, you can build the perfect vehicle for the mission! Visually customise your Techs and bases until everything is just to your liking, then optimise your Tech by taking advantage of powerful stat modifiers.

Expand and consolidate your planetary infrastructure by extracting exotic resources from the world around you. Resculpt the landscape to suit your needs with free-form terraforming tools - from flattening out a racetrack to creating peaks and valleys for base defence!

Explore a 300km² planet with no loading, no streaming and no limits, populated by rich and diverse environment biomes, with a day/night cycle, dynamic weather, dangerous plant life, hostile enemy factions and bases, and more. Venture deep into strange Woodlands, traverse the acidic Swamps, dodge lightning storms and enter the snowy Arctic.

Encounter and overcome a diverse range of enemy Techs as you expand your territory, scavenging and researching new blocks to upgrade your combat capability. Face down dangerous opponents, experiment with ever-more powerful and specialised combat builds, and team up with your fellow Prospectors to raid enemy bases and push back the frontier.
