Wings are Hardmode accessories that allow the player to fly temporarily by pressing and holding the ↷ Jump
key. They also provide immunity from fall damage (except when the player is affected by the Stoned debuff), rendering the Lucky Horseshoe, Obsidian Horseshoe, Featherfall Potion, etc. unnecessary. By continuing to hold the ↷ Jump
key after flight time has been exhausted, the player is able to glide. Gliding fall speed can be accelerated by holding the ▼ Down
key in addition. Certain Wings can also allow the player to hover in midair.

Equipping Wings generally replaces jumps entirely with flight, rather than requiring a double-jump to activate. Flight is much more controlled with Wings than with Rocket Boots or Spectre Boots alone, and allow for much greater flight range. Flight time is reset when the player stands on blocks, or grabs a block with Grappling Hooks or the Climbing Claws.

There are currently 40 total types of Wings across all platforms. There are 39 wings available on the Pc only.png Desktop version, 21 on the Console only.png Console version and  Mobile only.pngMobile version. Flight time and speed vary by type.

Wings are crafted at a Mythril Anvil or an Orichalcum Anvil. The Solar Wings, Vortex Booster, Nebula Mantle, and Stardust Wings are crafted at the Ancient Manipulator. Wings that are not craftable can be obtained from certain NPCs, can be dropped by certain enemies, and can be contained only in Treasure Bags from Hardmode bosses in Expert Mode.

All developer wings have a 1:20 chance to drop from Expert Mode Treasure Bags but only from Hardmode bosses.
