With Deltarune Chapters 1-4 just around the corner, creator Toby Fox gives some last-minute tips regarding spoilers, bugs, and patches. While some of the tips are obvious (such as staying away from social media), others can prove quite helpful.
The Deltarune soundtrack contains more than 150 songs and some spoilers
For starters, Fox recommends buying the game’s soundtrack on Steam. Costing $14.99, it includes over 150 songs from the first four chapters as well as any future music Fox releases for the succeeding chapters. The soundtrack is also available on Fox’s Bandcamp, though it seems like he will prioritize updating the Steam version more. To avoid spoilers, Fox has not yet made the soundtrack available for purchase and warns players not to look at the track names until after finishing the game.
Patches and bugs will be addressed on Nintendo consoles later than other platforms
Despite being a Nintendo Switch 2 launch title, it seems Nintendo’s policy on patches will cause some delays when updating Deltarune Chapters 1-4. This is because Nintendo platforms require a different timescale for them to be approved, causing patches on the Switch and Switch 2 to take a little longer to be rolled out. Fox is hoping for fans’ consideration when it comes to updates for these versions.
That said, any bugs or issues that you run into while playing can be sent to [email protected]. The Deltarune FAQ page will be updated with known issues over the next few weeks, so make sure to check if the bug or glitch you are experiencing is listed there first before adding to the spam Toby Fox has to sift through.
As a final note, Fox wants you not to rush through the game just to avoid potential spoilers. He highly encourages you to play at your own pace and to take breaks between each chapter. Considering it’s been four years since Deltarune got a new chapter, you might want to savor every moment before seeing the credits roll on Chapter 4.
Deltarune Chapters 1-4’s release date has been bumped up to June 4 for Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, PC (macOS and Windows), and PlayStation 4 and 5.
