Godot Engine Official framed the announcement as: "Maintenance release: Godot 4.5.2".

While most users have upgraded their projects to Godot 4.6 by now, some have to stay on the previous 4.5 branch for various reasons, so we do our best to provide them with important fixes. Our release support policy is that we support a given stable branch actively until its successor has had its first patch release, which happened a month ago with 4.6.1. But 4.5.2 was already in the pipeline with RC1, I just never got to finalizing it… so it’s time to wrap it up with a stable release! Note: Following this maintenance release, the 4.5 branch switches to partial support, and the 4.4 branch is end of life and won’t get new patch releases. Maintenance releases are expected to be safe for an upgrade, but we recommend to always make backups, or use a version control system such as Git, to preserve your projects in case of corruption or data loss.

A significant update for 4.5 users with important rendering bug fixes, especially for mobile and D3D12.

Engine releases and dev snapshots reveal whether a game stack is becoming more production-ready, more iteration-friendly, or more viable for specific shipping targets like mobile.
