Deltarune Chapter 5 launches on Switch June 24

Nintendo Direct announced that Deltarune Chapter 5 will launch on Nintendo Switch 1 and 2 on June 24 and will be offered as a free update to anyone who already owns Deltarune. The release applies to both Switch models listed in the broadcast.

A new trailer shown during the Direct included gameplay clips that highlighted the series’ mix of turn-based encounters and bullet-hell style attack patterns. The footage focused on combat sequences and character interactions, giving a clearer look at how battles and story segments will play in Chapter 5.

The trailer credited Toby Fox and the development team responsible for the Switch presentation. Nintendo confirmed the June 24 release date but did not provide a specific launch time, download size, or platform-specific features for the update. No additional paid content tied to Chapter 5 was mentioned in the announcement.

The end of the trailer included on-screen text stating that Chapter 6 “is waiting,” indicating further chapters are planned. No release window or development schedule for Chapter 6 was provided during the presentation.

Toby Fox is the creator of Deltarune, which has been released in chapters delivered as sequential updates. Making Chapter 5 available at no extra cost for current owners continues the same distribution approach used for earlier chapters.
