The Proximity Mine Launcher is a Hardmode, post-Plantera Launcher that fires mines which stick to blocks, remaining dormant and semi-transparent until a player or enemy approaches, or until a minute passes, at which point they explode. The Proximity Mine Launcher is purchased from the Cyborg for 35. The Cyborg will also use the Proximity Mine Launcher to protect himself.

The Proximity Mine Launcher uses Rockets as ammunition. The mines are heavily affected by gravity and will only travel a short distance before dropping to the ground. The firing player will not actually trigger their detonation by getting close, although the firing player will take damage if they are within range of an exploding mine.

Its best Modifier is Unreal.

Notes

• Despite the name, it cannot fire Land Mines, which are an unrelated item. The Proximity Mine Launcher can only use Rockets as ammo.
• In the Mobile version of Terraria, the Proximity Mine Launcher acts the same as a normal Rocket Launcher, but its rockets only explode in contact with a solid surface.
