pre-orders for the full game were accepted starting from June 13, 2009. Minecraft's official release date was November 18, 2011. If you asked somebody what terraria was back in 2010 nobody would know what you're talking about. Every kid knew about Minecraft in 2010. When you ask was terraria "out" before Minecraft technically no.
Today (february 17th) they will send it to app store so it should appear on 18-19th
