As reported by our colleagues over at PushSquare, the Twitter account for Undertale is teasing something big. The creator behind the game and the account - Toby Fox - has posted a batch of mysterious tweets, leading to speculation a sequel to the cult-hit RPG will be announced. This is probably the most informative post of the lot:
Apart from that, Fox says it's something that will be "very interesting" and will even require fans' input. Whatever it is, it's not yet complete and any responses will be used to help move things along. If you want to see all of the tweets, be sure to check out the game's official Twitter account.
Undertale might have only just been released on the Nintendo Switch in September after a long wait, but has actually been about since 2015. It seems like there's a good chance a sequel will be announced. What do you think, though? Do you think a sequel is on the cards? Tell us in the comments.

Plot Twist: Nintendo gave him the rights to make Mother 4, even though the West still doesn’t have Mother 3.
Also Ness is now canonically Sans.
Toby is teasing the battle royale update for Undertale.
The last tease of a big announcement we got was from Shin'en Art of Balance. It had better be something big!
Well, this is unexpected. Maybe it's just my opinion, but I don't think Toby should try to make a sequel because sequels are almost always inferior to the original and it might end the series on a bad note.
And don't get me started on fan art.
Probably a Halloween extension. Remember that one of his first major role in gaming was a Halloween hack for Earthbound. The first place he put Megalovania(sans battle theme) too.
@ReaderRagfish It would be pretty questionable if he thought he needed another Kickstarter after the insane success of Undertale for sure. On the ither hand, Undertale was a fantastic game that was actually completed on a crazy small KS budget, so...at least the track record is stellar?
Eh, I doubt it'll be a Kickstarter anyhow.
Knowing Toby Fox, I wouldn't get any hopes up for any traditional "big" announcement. For all we know he could be announcing an official Undertale novel to be written by fanfic writers, all about the annoying dog.
Nothing is off the table with this man.
God help me if my youngest daughter sees this, I'll be in deep poo
@SheldonRandoms T-Pose Toriel is my main. Yes, I pick the broken character.
@Deku-Scrub I'd rather they give the rights to the "Space Funeral" guy.
Nintendo is letting him make Mother 4
Probably a sale or price cut. Speaking of which I'm waiting for Resident Evil Revelaitons to go on sale again
@HADAA it did today from what i saw. At least in NA
Overtales is coming soon.
@ReaderRagfish It appears he wants input, but IDK about money. Oh well, not long to find out for sure anyhow.
Great. More cringy poop for cringy people to crazy about.
@Deku-Scrub If they were going to give the franchise to some new blood then he'd actually be a pretty great pick.
Let them make an switch only game please!
@Spoony_Tech Except nothing indicated it was anything big. It was just Shin'en saying that they're going to announce something for Switch, which they did.
Undertale announcement the same day as the smash Bros direct.... 0_o
Lol in all seriousness I am guessing there is possibly some dlc coming. That Lester character has been hidden in the game for ages and he looks mega Halloweeny.
I tried Undertale on the vita, just couldn't get into it. But I loved Earthbound.
Should I give it another shot?
Oh!
Probably an Undertale movie staring Milla Jovovich and a questionable plot!
Can't wait for the photos to reassure worried fans!
Undertales making dog like sausage sports club.
It’s literally Sans Undertale shoes that play megalovania when you walk
>Smash Direct is within 24 hours.
>Undertale related announcement coming within 24 hours.
>Needs fan input -> use your controller.
>Sans for Smash Bros. confirmed.
Or it's a Sans themed desktop USB fan.
UNDERTALE for Smash confirmed
-Fight Screen could be stage
Frisk (using all the bosses in the attacks)
Chara (Echo-fighter)
@Reigestugatensho ok that's actually kinda amazing. I kinda want Undertale in Smash now just to mess with the leakers at this point.
@readyletsgo
I don't know. I was grabbed the first second I played. But I think you can only make up your mind after you've played some time after the first big boss.
@garfreek I'd say the humor is definitely just as zany, and the overal game has a big mother 3 vibe. But I think there'd be loads of people who just wouldn't like it.
@readyletsgo I enjoy both Earthbound/Mother and Undertale and I encourage you to pick it up again. If its not your fancy then... Well.. There's always Octopath Traveler if you haven't played that and need that RPG itch scratched.
@Nego Sans?!?
@readyletsgo I think it's worth investing some time into it, yea. For me, I get a similar vibe to Cave Story - completely different genres, but they feel quite similar due to the music, setting, characters and script etc. So if you like Cave Story, I think there's a chance you'll like enough of Undertale to enjoy it.
Surprised there hasnt been any follow-up news to this yet. Apparently the thing announced 24 hours later was a Mac/PC game (demo?) called "DELTA RUNE".
I dont want to spoil anything, as it's definitely something everyone should experience for themselves, but if you liked Undertale, you'll likely enjoy this too.
@DTFaux
Seeing as it's a proper full fledged project with localisation work provided by 8-4 as well, it seems likely that this game would see a Switch release thanks to Game Maker support.
@RupeeClock For sure. Unless Undertale on Switch sold abysmally, this is all but guaranteed to come to Switch (and other consoles).
Only thing I'm curious of is how far along development is and how long the final version will be. There was so much meat and polish to this game/demo, it could've passed for a full game.
