At the Nintendo Direct event for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, it was announced that Deltarune Chapters 1-4 would launch alongside the console, priced at $24.99. Deltarune is an alternate tale to Undertale and has previously been available as a demo on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Steam, featuring chapters 1 and 2. The bundle of Deltarune Chapters 1-4 will be a paid release. Toby Fox has provided some insights regarding the release details in a Q&A post on the official website.

You can find the Deltraune Switch 2 trailer and details from Toby Fox in a Q&A format below: 

How much will DELTARUNE cost?

In North America, you’ll find DELTARUNE priced at $24.99. In other parts of the world, the cost will be approximately the same when converted.

How much will future chapters cost?

Nothing! They’ll be made available as free updates once they’re ready to release.

What platforms is DELTARUNE coming out on?

The complete version of the game can be played on PC, Mac, Nintendo Switch, future Nintendo consoles, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. A preview is currently accessible on PC, Mac, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4. Keep in mind that demos for the Switch and PS4 can also be played on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5 versions respectively.

If I buy DELTARUNE on Switch 1 or Switch 2, do I get the other version as well?

We aim to offer a bundle deal where you can get both Switch and Switch 2 versions for a single price. However, we are still finalizing the specifics. Keep an eye out for more information on this exciting development soon! Please note that in some areas, legal requirements might necessitate a small additional cost if you wish to obtain the other version after buying one of them.

How about on PS4 and PS5?

We’re hoping to make it possible to just pay one price for PS4 and PS5 as well. Please stay tuned!

Will there be a physical version?

Someday, probably, but not yet.

What’s different between the various PC and console versions?

They’re almost exactly the same, but check out the April 2 newsletter for more specifics.

As a gamer here, I find myself using a new device for my gaming sessions. Since I’ve been exploring the demo on another account, is it necessary for me to revisit Chapters 1 and 2 before diving into Chapters 3 or 4?

Go ahead and choose any chapter you prefer to play, even starting from the beginning. If you keep a basic understanding of the storyline events, you should have no trouble following along. It’s best to play through the chapters sequentially for the first time though.

So are Chapters 3 and 4 the rest of the game? This is it!?

Further installments are on the horizon. At this point, we’ve only managed to finish up to Chapter 4, so your understanding is appreciated as we continue our work.

How does this game relate to UNDERTALE? Is it a sequel?

In essence, you need not fret excessively about this matter. The setting here isn’t like UNDERTALE. If you’ve finished UNDERTALE, know that the ending and its world remain as you left it. In the UNDERTALE universe, if everyone was happy before, they will continue to be so in the future. Therefore, let go of your concerns for those characters and that world, as it remains unchanged. In simpler terms, DELTARUNE is a fresh story with new characters who have their own lives, distinct from UNDERTALE’s.

If you’re wondering about the term for this specific type of game that you can only access once you’ve finished Undertale, here’s a hint: it’s an optional additional playthrough.

So there’s no connections between the two games?

In a new, potentially unique environment, the laws may also differ. Yet, it doesn’t rule out the existence of some links or similarities altogether.

When will more chapters come out?

As an excited enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that the next chapter in our epic journey through Deltarune is currently being crafted! Although it’s not ready just yet, keep your eyes peeled on deltarune.com or sign up for the newsletter to stay updated with the latest developments!

Will you add anything else to the DEMO?

Chapters 1 and 2 make up the full demo. We have no plans to add anything else to it.

How many endings are there?

One.

Then doesn’t that mean nothing I do matters?

There’s something more important than reaching the end.

I found some kind of bug, will you fix it?

You’ve got an email waiting for you. Don’t forget to specify the game you were engaged with. I’ve camouflaged the email address around here, see if you can spot it.

Oh… I didn’t hide it very well.

Can I buy the soundtrack?

Absolutely, here are two options for purchasing the game’s soundtrack:

1. On Steam, you can obtain the complete game soundtrack, with future chapters being added for free as they become available.
2. If you prefer, you can buy individual chapters or releases from either Bandcamp or iTunes.

Any closing remarks?

Appreciate your curiosity about the game. It might not appeal to everyone, but to those with a specific inclination, it could resonate on a deeper level, transcending its superficial aspects and taking root within you.

Regardless of whether it’s only a single individual who shares the sentiment, I am committed to continually developing this game alongside you for growth.

See you again soon.
