In a typical playthrough, you’ll move through these milestones: - Pre-Hardmode bosses: Eye of Cthulhu, and either Eater of Worlds (Corruption) or Brain of Cthulhu (Crimson), followed by Skeletron. - Wall of Flesh to unlock Hardmode. - Hardmode bosses: The Mechanical bosses (Destroyer, Twins, Skeletron Prime). - Post-mechanical: Plantera, then Golem, and finally Moon Lord as the endgame boss. The wiki’s Hardmode guide also offers strategy notes for tackling the mechanical trio and transitioning into late-game content. Getting started with Hardmode.
