Can You Play Genocide in Deltarune?

As fans of the popular underground world, we are accustomed to exploring the dark aspects of human nature. After all, what is undertale if not a masterpiece of morbid curiosity and creative storytelling? However, a natural question arises among Deltarune fans: can we play a genocide route in this chapter?

What is a Genocide Route?

To begin with, we must understand what a Genocide route entails. Simply put, it’s the choice to eradicate an entire race or group of enemies within a game. For the purposes of this question, we are concerned about Deltarune Chapter 2.

Will the Genocide Route Condemn You?

So, what happens when we decide to go through a genocide route in Chapter 2? Toby Fox, the creator of Undertale, revealed that only certain monsters are required for completion of the genocide. According to Fox, specific conditions are required for these specific monsters, but none are directly stated.

Despite these mysterious requirements, attempting to go through a Genocide route can still result in multiple endings. However, we won’t provide detailed explanations on each unique conclusion for now. Please read the entire article.

An interesting tidbit to explore further is Noelle, who joins the party towards the end of Chapter 2. It’s intriguing that the creators included an aspect where Noelle, in some cases, might be Chara, implying a potential bond between Kris (the current protagonist) and Chara.

Differences Compared to Undertale’s Genocide Route

To those who played Undertale and were accustomed to its world, we might expect familiar consequences when pursuing a genocide route. In reality, there are some differences here.

Pacifist Run’s Effect

So, how does trying for a Genocide Route interact with Pacifist Routes? According to statements made by Toby Fox and fans alike, making another Genocide attempt invalidates your chances at True Pacifist endings by changing world settings and content after completion.

Two Attempts and World Erasure

But what if one commits two genocide routes (twice) in one attempt? Unfortunately, when undertaking multiple Genocide Route runs, you are expected to restart, with another erased world after completing all world settings and required events. Reattempting another Genocide after an existing one usually only resets world content, with minimal or sometimes non-existent influence on core gameplay.

Recurring Conundrum? The Fate of a False Beginning

Here lies yet another paradoxical conundrum for the world setting, especially with possible reconnection of pre-existent paths from Chapter 1, or any chance connection between chapters, Deltarune 0’s role remains shrouded. No official indication for now indicates what events this "first genocide might affect later, possibly further.

A Brief Survey on Gaster

Not surprisingly, there is one specific individual with unknown abilities and roles, so crucial for shaping Deltarune, known and somewhat recognized through Gaster in both worlds, an odd phenomenon and its origins or future actions have caused mixed interpretations, a significant piece in understanding these dark realms is this one entity within Undertale. For additional exploration, seek sources, theories, rumors from dedicated forums.
