A patch for DELTARUNE Chapter 5 — version 0.0.250 — was released on July 22, 2026 for PC, Mac, and PlayStation. The update covers gameplay additions, combat logic corrections, and a notable cluster of bugs involving save data inherited from Chapter 4.

What changed

Additions

  • A Golden Tenna Statue now appears in Castle Town in Chapter 5 if it was obtained from the Ball Machine in Chapter 3.
  • Voice Clips can now be permanently re-enabled if the Chapter Boss is lost to while they are disabled — described by the developer as "shoddily added."

Bug fixes

  • Defeating a Titan Spawn with violence in Chapter 4 no longer incorrectly registers as a "Lost" outcome; a downstream issue where Jackenstein would not appear in Chapter 5 town has also been resolved.
  • Susie now correctly receives additional magic points in Chapter 5 when the Shadow Crystal boss of Chapter 4 was defeated.
  • Bugged blank item slots carried over from pre-fix Chapter 4 save files are corrected.
  • The ZL / L2 gamepad buttons no longer register as only a single frame of confirm input in Chapter 5.
  • A floor-clipping exploit triggered by opening the ACT menu immediately after fighting three scarecrows is fixed.
  • The game can no longer be crashed by simultaneously striking an enemy and a Mysterious Statue.
  • Various exploits allowing movement during combat or with menus open have been addressed.
  • Certain bullet patterns now correctly award TP when grazed.
  • Kris no longer remains in a sideways orientation entering the final Chapter 5 cutscene.

The patch note ends mid-sentence on a teased next-patch feature, leaving that detail unconfirmed. For players carrying saves across multiple chapters, the corrections to inherited data and combat state tracking are the most substantive changes here.
