Toby Fox shares another development update on Deltarune Chapters 3, 4 & 5
Undertale creator Toby Fox has launched his “holiday newsletter” for 2024, and it includes some “progress updates” on Deltarune Chapters 3, 4 and 5.
Chapter 3 was recently tested by a “professional team on PC” and is “pretty solid at the moment”. According to Fox, “only the console-related aspects remain”. He even got some impressions from the team that tried it out:
“It took a lot of work to check all the little details and text differences in the game…
on the other hand, it’s fun to find these things yourself.
as a criticism, it’s a bit inconvenient not to be able to save in some longer sections…
…but, those parts are thoroughly enjoyable and keep you excited to see what happens next.”
As for Chapter 4, the “first translation pass” has just entered the game – and as it nears completion, the PC testing of the chapter will begin. This will then obviously be followed by “console testing” for Chapters 3 and 4.
Toby also provides an update on Chapter 5 – reveals how “more recent recruits” have been brought into focus in the fifth chapter – with “steady” progress. Here are his general thoughts on Deltarune’s development:
“The pace of creation this time is pretty solid! Many things are being developed at the same time!”
So that’s the last of Toby Fox’s newsletters for 2024! He previously mentioned Chapters 3 & 4 are “100% coming” next year – so hopefully we won’t have to wait much longer.
