Deltarune is set to enhance its gaming experience with exclusive features on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. Announced during the latest Nintendo Direct for Switch 2 on April 2, the game will include Chapters 3 and 4, along with special enhancements tailored for the next-gen console. Let's dive into what these exclusive features entail and how much you can expect to pay for this exciting new version.
Special Room and More Exclusively for Switch 2
The Switch 2 version of Deltarune promises a unique room designed to utilize the innovative mouse functionality of the new Joy-Cons. According to Toby Fox, the game's developer, in a Fangamer newsletter, "So, we made a very small SPECIAL ROOM which takes advantage of using MOUSE CONTROLS ON TWO CONTROLLERS AT ONCE, only possible on the Nintendo Switch 2!!" This feature will provide an immersive experience unique to the Switch 2 platform.
For those playing on non-Switch 2 devices, the special room will still be accessible but with a different control scheme. Moreover, players can seamlessly import their save files from the Nintendo Switch demo of Deltarune 1 and 2 to the new version, ensuring continuity in their gaming journey.
Deltarune Future Chapters Will Be Free
In the same newsletter, Toby Fox revealed that Deltarune will be priced at $24.99. This cost covers Chapters 1 and 2, along with the new releases of Chapters 3 and 4. Initially, Chapter 1 was released in 2018 and Chapter 2 in 2021, both available for free. While it was previously announced that Chapters 3-5 would be paid content, Fox has now confirmed that all future chapters will be added as free updates. This means that a single purchase of the game will grant access to all future content. Fox expressed his hope that "as we complete more Chapters, you'll feel like this game was a super super super super good deal."
Additionally, the game’s soundtrack will be available on Steam for $14.99, featuring over 150 songs from Chapters 3 and 4. Future chapters will also contribute new songs to this collection at no extra cost, ensuring that fans get maximum value from their investment.
Deltarune Chapters 1-4 are slated for release on June 5, 2025, coinciding with the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2. The game will be available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. To stay informed about the latest developments, be sure to check out our updates regularly.
