When is Deltarune Chapter 2 Coming Out, Is it Getting Released for Free?
Indie game Undertale celebrated its 6th anniversary on September 15, and a new announcement from its main developer Toby Fox revealed when is Deltarune Chapter 2 coming out.
Deltarune is the spiritual successor of Undertale, using the same presentation, the same old-school graphics, and tons of original game systems heavily inspired by classic JRPG. However, it’s set in a new world with new characters, and the world of Undertale is left untouched. Deltarune Chapter 1 was released back in October 2018, and now Chapter 2 finally has a release date.
Toby Fox held with Fangamer on September 15 a special live stream for the 6th anniversary of Undertale. Where the Fangamer team played Deltarune Chapter 1 with live commentary from the developer. The release date for Deltarune Chapter 2 was revealed at the end of the stream with some gameplay.
