The fifth season of Arby 'n' the Chief was first officially announced on January 3rd, 2011 on Jon Graham's blog, and premiered on January 22nd with the release of the episode "House of Cards".

The season marked a major shift in the series' style and mood; from a lighthearted comedy consisting of mostly self-contained episodes, it transformed into a more action-driven show with a season-long storyline, focusing on realism and character development. The show earned a new pixel art title card based on the one used in the previous season, and featured original electronic tracks by Jon Graham more prominently.
