Each section of the Eater must be killed in order to defeat the entire boss. When any inner body segment is destroyed, it splits into multiple smaller worms, each with their own head and tail. On the Old-gen console version, 3DS version, Switch version, and tModLoader version, it has a total of 50 segments, whereas on Desktop, Console, and Mobile it has a total of 67 / 72 segments. The Eater of Worlds is not a single target, but a string of segments with individual life counters. It is summoned using Worm Food from within The Corruption or Underground Corruption, or by destroying 3 Shadow Orbs that spawn in Corruption worlds. The Eater of Worlds is a pre-Hardmode Corruption-themed worm boss.
