Deltarune Chapter 5 0.0.242 (Hotfix Patch) Notes (27th June 2026)
Deltarune gets its second hotfix in three days as Toby Fox addresses nine separate crashes and a performance issue.
Toby Fox is back with another quick fix for Deltarune Chapter 5, this time tackling nine crashes and a memory leak that could tank performance if you repeated certain actions too many times.
The big ones here are the softlock fixes. Using Rudebuster in the final phase of a certain boss no longer crashes the game, and putting Ralsei in your party before skipping the intro won't break things either. There's also a fix for that black screen bug when opening a pink door at a precise location, which sounds like the exact kind of edge case that only shows up after thousands of players have been poking at the game.
The memory leak is the one if you've been grinding or repeating actions excessively. Fox notes the team is aware of other issues and working through them. Check the full notes below for the complete list of what changed.
