Toby Fox's Deltarune has taken another step forward: following the release of Chapter 5 earlier this week, the development team has provided a release window for Chapter 6.
In a newly posted Steam FAQ, the creators behind Deltarune confirm they are targeting a 2027 release for Chapter 6 and reiterate that the game's episodic story will continue beyond Chapter 5.
Deltarune, the follow-up project to Undertale, is being developed under the direction of Toby Fox and has attracted sustained attention from the indie and broader gaming communities.
The series is distributed on PC via Steam and itch.io, and its episodic model has kept fans engaged between installments.
Chapter 5's arrival has renewed interest in the series' roadmap and the timeline for future content.
According to the Steam FAQ, developers clarified that Chapter 5 is not the final chapter and that additional chapters will be released free of charge over time.
The FAQ states the team is "aiming for a 2027 release" for Chapter 6 and notes the studio will "periodically release information on the development progress of the game." Those statements serve as the project's most concrete timeline guidance so far.
The FAQ does not reference Chapter 7 or any later chapters by name; it focuses squarely on Chapter 6 and the team's commitment to ongoing updates.
The development team also emphasized that they will continue to provide progress reports to fans as work continues, maintaining the communication pattern established with earlier chapters.
For players and industry watchers, the 2027 target offers a clearer long-term expectation after Chapter 5's launch.
Fans who follow Deltarune through Steam should expect official posts and FAQ updates from the developer, and Nintendo Switch owners who monitor indie releases via Nintendo Direct or the eShop can continue to watch for platform announcements, though the Steam FAQ is the immediate source of the Chapter 6 timeline.
Toby Fox's track record—most notably with Undertale—has made Deltarune one of the most closely followed indie projects of the last several years.
With Chapter 6 now penciled in for 2027 and periodic development updates promised, the series' ongoing episodic rollout remains a key story for indie development and game industry audiences alike.
Stay tuned to the game's official Steam page and developer communications for confirmed dates and further details.
