Teraflare , also spelled Tera Flare, is a recurring attack in the Final Fantasy series. It is an upgraded form of Megaflare even stronger than Gigaflare, and it does colossal non-elemental damage to all targets. It is universally exclusive to Bahamut and his incarnations.

===Final Fantasy XV -The Dawn of the Future-===
Teraflare is Bahamut's "final summoning", strong enough to wipe out all life on Eos.
Bahamut used Teraflare at the fall of or directly after Solheim's fall during the War of the Astrals to end the war after becoming disillusioned by the conflict between the Astrals and humans , but the attack was absorbed by the other Astrals who then fell into slumber, exhausted. Bahamut would need to "recharge" for millennia to be able to use Teraflare again, and during this time tasked the kings of Lucis and the Oracles of Tenebrae with fighting the Scourge and its daemons.
Dawn of the Future depicts an alternate ending to the saga where Ardyn Izunia accumulates power too great for Bahamut's True King to purge, and thus Bahamut sets out to use Teraflare again, to both wipe out the scourge and all life on Eos, planning to energize it with the darkness itself as collected by the revived Lunafreya Nox Fleuret. His plan fails when the other Astrals again block his Teraflare, and Noctis and Ardyn cooperate to ensure Bahamut will never be able to use Teraflare again by felling him in both the physical and the heavenly realms at the same time.
===Final Fantasy XVI===
Teraflare is used by Bahamut during the third phase of the battle during a Cinematic Clash event. He charges and unleashes the attack while the player must mash to defend against the Teraflare. Bahamut can use Teraflare again in the final phase as a "Press the Attack!" event. If the player does not deal enough damage to Bahamut during the charging, he will unleash a massive, unavoidable beam that deals heavy damage.

The Bahamuts' attacks are named after unit prefixes in the metric system—Mega, Giga and Tera—often familiar from the multiples of the unit byte for digital information.
