The ongoing saga of Deltarune, Toby Fox's latest RPG continues. A little over one year since Chapters 3 and 4 came out, we've gotten news of when the next part will be out courtesy of a Nintendo Direct, and it's mere weeks away.
Per the latest Nintendo presentation, Deltarune Chapter 5 is coming out worldwide on June 24, 2026. Obviously, this means it's coming to Nintendo Switch 2, and it'll be on PlayStation 5, PC, and all other expected platforms.
The gameplay shown is typically madcap, ranging from wild minigames to cartoony interactions. And the absurd boss battles, don't forget those.
This chapter is coming out remarkably quick compared to its predecessors. There were three years between the first and second parts, then another four years before chapters three and four were playable.
In that time, several ports were created, including for the newer systems, placing quite a bit of demand on Fox's time and energy. Nonetheless, he's managed to the next installment out in good time.
We already knew that Chapter 5 was set to release at some point this year, though Fox previously expressed that it probably wouldn't be in the first half of the year. Now that it's launching at the end of June, though, he just barely managed to get it over the line before then. Chapter 5 comes as a free update to anyone who already owns the game, too, and it'll be the same for the RPG's future chapters.
