Bosses in Terraria are a significant challenge for players and there are quite a few of them in the game. Here’s a complete rundown of all the bosses in order, along with their abilities.

Like most other games, bosses in Terraria appear in various shapes, sizes, and levels of difficulty. Before you go ahead and lock horns, they’ll need to be summoned in the game.

Terraria offers some bosses that’ll prove to be a challenge for sure.

How many bosses are there in Terraria?

In the Normal World of Terraria, you’ll face a total of seven bosses. After progressing to the Hard Mode, a total of 10 bosses will appear.

While you need to beat some of these bosses to progress onto the next level, others are optional. This means you may or may not fight them but you’d still be able to complete your game.

Is there any order of bosses in Terraria?

In the world of Terraria, there is no particular order to defeat the bosses. You may fight them whenever you feel like it, as long you know the way to summon them in the first place.

However, all of these bosses can be sorted in an order of difficulty. So, here’s the list of all the bosses in the same order along with their HP and summoning item:
