As Deltarune will be available on both current and last-generation consoles, he also talks about how PlayStation and Nintendo players will be able to purchase the digital editions for their respective platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DELTARUNE Nintendo Switch 2 Announce Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yDzgiGdekas?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/deltarune-chapters-1-4-will-make-use-of-switch-2s-joy-con-mouse-controls-in-special-room\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Deltarune Chapters 1-4 is releasing alongside the Nintendo Switch 2<\/a> as a launch title, that version of the game will be available as early as June 5, 12:00 am local time in all regions (those in New Zealand and Australia will be able to play the game a little earlier provided they get their Nintendo Switch 2s at midnight in their time zones).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fox and his team decided to pick a universal (simultaneous) launch time on all other platforms due to the time differences between Japan and the United Stated of America. The game will officially be playable on PC, Nintendo Switch 1, and PlayStation 4 and 5 starting 12:000 am Japan Standard Time (JST). That\u2019s June 4 at 8 am PDT, 11 am EDT, and 5 pm CET.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1104\" height=\"663\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1104px) 100vw, 1104px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509-478400001.jpg\" alt=\"Spamton in a wallet. \" class=\"wp-image-47842\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509-478400001.jpg 1104w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509-478400001-380x228.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509-478400001-768x461.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuing the string of good news, Fox reveals that those who purchase Deltarune Chapters 1-4 on the PlayStation Store will receive both the PlayStation 4 and 5 copies of the game for the price of one game. The same cross-buy feature will be available on the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 versions, although players in Japan will have to pay a small fee to get the game on both Nintendo consoles due to legal reasons (you also need to purchase both copies using the same Nintendo Account).
