The launch of Deltarune Chapter 5 is coming, with a simultaneous worldwide opening on June 24, meaning players all over the world will return to Hometown at the same time, or at different points in their day.
It’s hard to believe that Deltarune launched in 2018, with only a small sample of gameplay that people can download for free. Nearly ten years later, Chapter 5 is nearing release on PC, PlayStation 4 & 5, and Nintendo Switch systems, promising answers to questions that have plagued fans for years.

Trailers and promotional images for Deltarune Chapter 5 seem to confirm that it will include the long-awaited Hometown Festival, as well as a trip to the Dark Land created in Asgore’s Flower Shop, which may have a ton of references to Undertale, especially Flowey and the souls of men.
Toby Fox gave positive reviews about Deltarune Chapter 6, making fans excited about the prospect of a 2027 launch. This means that any cliffhangers or big revelations won’t leave fans hanging for long, as the Deltarune team is already working hard to finish the story, assuming it ends with Chapter 7.
Deltarune Chapter 5 is one of the most exciting games of 2026, especially if fans have been waiting a long time for answers about the mysteries of the series. The fact that the story seems to split in two, thanks to the Strange Route in Chapter 2 that allows the player to do some really horrible things, just makes it even more interesting.
No one in 2018 would have expected Deltarune to grow the way it did, and although it may not have shaken the gaming world in the same way as Undertale, its episodic nature allowed fans to invest more, as the answers were gradually added with each new release.
Grand Theft Auto 6 may be the biggest game of 2026, but for RPG fans, there is no competition, as Deltarune Chapter 5 is the undisputed title of the year, and they will be there on June 24, getting ready to download it.
