YOU GUYS — I am geeking out because this just keeps getting better! That old post of mine wasn't even close to how big Chapter 5 is actually shaping up, so let me set it right: Toby Fox dropped a literal '8-4' Easter egg in the Nintendo Direct and confirmed Deltarune Chapter 5 officially launches June 24 on BOTH Switch and the new Switch 2! That means two generations of fans get the same update at once, which is huge. I already can't stop thinking about what that means for port parity across both consoles.
The footage they showed us goes hard — we got real gameplay with more of Toby's signature witty writing and those insane bullet-hell turn-based battles that make Deltarune so special. Best news yet? The new chapter is a free update to every existing owner, which feels like the only way Toby would do it. You don't need to buy anything extra; just keep playing what you already own on June 24 and Chapter 5 rolls right in.
I am actually vibrating because the trailer even teased that Chapter 6 is 'waiting,' so this isn't a finite finale! Fox has been crafting these chunks for years, and we're getting more of exactly what makes his games great: emotion, humor, and gameplay loops you can't stop playing. June 24 cannot come soon enough — mark your calendars because Deltarune Chapter 5 is about to change the internet again!
