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 Stoned), rendering the Lucky Horseshoe 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.
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 37 types of Wings, one of which is exclusive to the console and mobile versions. Flight time and speed vary by type.
Types
All craftable Wings are crafted at the Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum Anvil.

Notes
Stacked Accessories | Boost | |
---|---|---|
All bottle accessories | no boost | |
|
All balloon accessories. | +30% ascent speed |
|

- Wings work under Water.
- Multiple Wings will not stack flight ability. Only those in the lowest Accessory slot will function.
- Some jump-boosting accessories do stack with Wings to boost flight (see chart to the right).
- Wings are always visible when equipped, except when using other equipment that adds graphics to the player's back, like the Leaf Blower or Turtle Scale Mail. They fold into a low-profile image when not in flight.
- When one Wing type is placed in a Vanity slot and the other in an Accessory slot, the full animation of the vanity Wings are shown, along with any lighting and particle effects. Flight speed and other functional characteristics follow those in the Accessory slot.
Tips
- An Ice Rod can be used to lay blocks of ice to land in mid air, making it possible to remain in the air almost indefinitely.
- The slow-fall effect of Featherfall Potion or an Umbrella will stack with Wing glide, allowing for very long glides after flight time has been exhausted.
- By using the the Bundle of Balloons, Frog Leg, Fishron Wings, Frostspark Boots, Flying Carpet, and Featherfall Potion, the player can attain a total maximum of ~1400 blocks of flight distance.
Trivia
- All of the wing types (except the Jetpack) make the same sound when flapping. The Hoverboard and Beetle Wings are silent.
- Before 1.3 released, the Fishron Wings had the greatest flight height of any legitimately obtainable wings, and were better than all developer Wings except for Red's Wings. This was because Red's Wings had infinite flight time, though this is no longer the case. However, three mounts (Shrimpy Truffle, Cosmic Car Key and Drill Containment Unit) all grant infinite flight time. All three are legitimately obtainable.
- You need 300 (320 on Console) Souls of Flight to obtain all craftable Wings, and 2 40 (1 80 on Console) to buy the purchased Wings.
