Deltarune Chapter 5 Release Confirmed

While the wait between the previous chapter releases of Deltarune took an agonizing three years, Chapter 5 won’t take as long to be released.

According to the end credits of Chapter 4, the next chapter will continue the tale in 2026 (via IGN). Unfortunately, that’s about it. There’s no month or targeted quarter mentioned, so this timeframe could mean anywhere from January 1, 2026 to December 31, 2026.

At the very least, fans can take comfort that they won’t need to wait years between chapters this time around.
