Deltarune Chapter 5: Hidden Foxes, Boss Trials & a Final Fantasy 14 Easter Egg

Deltarune Chapter 5 has arrived, and the community is already deep in the weeds uncovering its many secrets. Among the most talked-about discoveries are five hidden fox collectibles scattered across the chapter's world — a classic Toby Fox-style secret hunt that has players scouring every corner of the new dark world. Meanwhile, a particularly tricky boss encounter featuring characters Yellow and Blue is putting players through a courtroom-style "trial," demanding the right answers to progress — a clever gameplay twist that blends puzzle-solving with the series' signature quirky humor.

But perhaps the most heartwarming find of all comes courtesy of a developer Easter egg tucked inside the game: a loving shoutout to Final Fantasy 14. According to GamesRadar, the nod immortalizes one developer's deep affection for the beloved MMO — described as a "cat meets cat world" moment, likely a playful wink at FF14's iconic Miqo'te cat-people and Deltarune's own cast of anthropomorphic characters. It's a small but meaningful detail that speaks to the passion and personality poured into every inch of Deltarune's world, and a reminder that Toby Fox and his team love to reward the most attentive of players.
