Toby Fox Explains What to Expect From Deltarune Chapters 6 and 7
Deltarune creator Toby Fox has provided fresh details about the game’s upcoming chapters, confirming that the narrative setup phase is complete. Chapters 6 and 7 will shift focus toward delivering major story revelations and payoffs that players have been anticipating.
Fox indicated that Chapter 6 will be notably shorter than previous installments, addressing a long-standing concern among the community about development timelines. The creator previously acknowledged that subsequent chapters should be completed more quickly than their predecessors—Chapters 3 and 4 required several years of development between releases.
While no firm release date was announced, Fox expressed optimism about a 2027 target for at least Chapter 6, giving players a potential timeframe to look forward to. This news comes approximately one month after the launch of Chapter 5, which has already achieved significant milestones on Steam. The pacing adjustment signals Fox’s intention to maintain momentum and deliver content more regularly going forward, balancing quality with player expectations for timely updates to the acclaimed sequel to Undertale.
