# Skript 2.8.5

Skript 2.8.5 is here with some more bug fixes and quality-of-life additions. There is also early support for 1.20.5/1.20.6 (Skript will run and some basic 1.20.5/1.20.6 features will work). Further support will come in the next releases. You can report any issues on our [issue tracker](https://github.com/SkriptLang/Skript/issues).

Happy Skripting!
