Toby Fox has shared an incredibly brief update about the ongoing development of his latest game Deltarune.

In a post on social media, he mentioned how he's working on Chapter 5 "every day" and "was planning on" having the next newsletter for the game out by "late December".

"Working on Ch5 every day. Was planning on having the next newsletter in late December"

An update from Fox earlier this year in August mentioned how Chapter 4 was "basically playable minus some polish" and at the time, he also mentioned how the initial development of Chapter 5 was "progressing steadily".

So it seems all the focus is on Chapter 5 now. Here's what he had to say about the "release schedule" for Deltarune in the same August update:

"With the progress on Chapter 5, I’m feeling confident that once Chapter 3 and 4 come out, the release schedule for the following chapters will be a lot smoother!! It’s still going to take a good while to get there, but once we do, you’ll never have to wait so long for a Chapter ever again!"

Many fans are now trying to guess when the next Deltarune chapters and newsletter might be released. Here are a handful of thoughts and theories from a thread on the Deltarune subreddit:

"honestly the way i see it is that if the next newsletter comes out that late, it might honestly just be the release date newsletter"

"*inhales copium and puts on tinfoil hat* WELL WELL WELL..... he wrote "WAS planning....", that means things changed so..... Buckle up everyone, Halloween it is! *deranged laughing*"

"It's really Sad , unfortunately if the newsletter for December so yeah no chapter this year , Hoping that at least we will get chapter 5 and the other more quickly as promised by toby"

Do you think we'll see Deltarune's next chapters or see a release date for them any time soon? Leave your thoughts in the comments.
