Undertale creator Toby Fox recently provided an update on the testing phase for Deltarune Chapters 3 and 4. Read on for details on console testing and what to expect.
Deltarune's Console Testing Progressing Smoothly
Save Transfers Coming to the Main Game
Toby Fox, via his Bluesky account, shared that console testing is underway. While significant work remains, progress is positive. He noted fewer bugs but a substantial amount of testing ahead, even stating that PlayStation 5 testing hasn't begun yet. Beyond bug fixes, the team is working on a feature to carry over save data from Chapters 1 and 2 (the demo) to the full release on consoles. This functionality, recently made possible by new technology, is a welcome addition. Fox expressed his hope for its successful implementation.
With beta testing progressing well, a release date may be approaching. Fox previously confirmed a 2025 release window for Deltarune Chapters 3 and 4.
Fox Teases New Character: Tenna
Amidst the development efforts, Fox continues to engage fans with updates. He shared a humorous anecdote about a minigame he's working on, with family and friends describing it as "a cry for help because your game is not out." While his family found this positive, a friend’s reaction involved ten minutes of laughter.
This sparked speculation that the minigame might be intended for Chapter 5, given Fox's 2024 statement that Chapters 3 and 4 were content-complete. Deltarune is planned as a seven-chapter series.
Further fueling anticipation, Fox mentioned a fan's comment expressing a longing for a character named Tenna. This character, previously unseen publicly but featured in the Spamton Sweepstakes campaign (September 2022, for Child's Play charity), is now confirmed to appear in Chapter 3.
Deltarune, the spiritual successor to Undertale, retains many of the original's mechanics while introducing a new story and characters. Players follow Kris, Susie, and Ralsei on a world-saving adventure.
