Deltarune has released its next chapters after nearly three years. Chapters 3 and 4 are the next parts of the series and have managed to bring back a huge fan base to revisit and enjoy the thrill of this 8-bit game. One thing that stood out back in Chapter 2 was the availability of the Rhythm Minigame. Due to its popularity, it has been brought back in both new chapters. In this article, we will be talking more about the Rhythm Minigame and how to access it.

The Rhythm Minigame has made a dramatic return in Chapters 3 and 4 after three long years. This minigame tests your teamwork skills. The steps for unlocking the Rhythm Minigame in Chapter 3 of Deltarune are quite straightforward. Ultimately, the main task is to reach S-Rank on the board.

This can be achieved with collective effort through various methods. While battling enemies, try not to take too much damage. Also, while nearing the end of such fights, maximize the TP (Tension Points). There are plenty of points you can collect throughout the game. Collecting these bonuses and points will help you rank up faster as well. Last but not least, explore. Get sidetracked and explore whatever and as much as you can. The more minigames or interactions you take part in, the more points you get.

If, however, by the end, you are not able to achieve the number of points you need, don’t worry. You will have the option to purchase 1,500 points from an NPC near a Tenna Statue. You will find this character after exiting the green room, down the hall to the left side. One condition, however, is that you can only get these points if you haven’t already finished the second board yet.

Once you reach S-Rank, go to the S-Starred door. You will find it at the top-right corner of the green room. You will get access to the backstage area. Now, locate and interact with the console. This will begin the “Lightners Live” Rhythm Minigame.
