The fifth season of Versus Drag Queens was officially anounced on May 19, 2021, when the show Instagram account announced that an Instagram Live would be taking place that night, where previous winners Belika Rubik and Ursula Del Real would be discussing details about the casting process.
It would be later announced through the show's official accounts that the season was placed on hold due to insufficient funds and that they would be starting a fund-raising campaign in order to produce the season.[3]
The filming of the fifth season was announced by Revista Clóset on November 2, 2023, and it is set to start on February 2024.[4]
On June 3, 2024, the seven new contestants were revealed. Art-Tica and Oscar Hernán will also return for this season as resident judges.[5]
