Do we like them?

Do we like Toby Fox?

Our score: 6 out of 10. Nothing harmful found, but we couldn't open enough reporting to say more, so he sits in the middle.

Toby Fox is the American developer and composer behind Undertale and Deltarune, the cult RPGs that turned a one-man project into a fan community of millions. He writes the games and the music himself, and he's known for keeping a low profile and doing few interviews.

The latest news is the Deltarune release schedule. Chapter 5 was given a 24 June 2026 date in June, and it arrived as a free update for people who already own the game rather than a paid add-on. That's a fan-friendly move, and no one's cross about it that we could find.

On the harm check, we went looking for anything on LGBTQ+ people, women, migrants, vaccines or the climate, and for the company he keeps. Nothing turned up in what we read. Undertale is widely read by fans and critics as queer-friendly, though that's about the game and tells us nothing about his own views.

On the good-person side there were no court cases or allegations in the reporting we found. The only rows in his public story are fan arguments, like how he handles translations and music claims, and they're the stuff of fandom, not wrongdoing. Honestly, the record we could verify is short, so take this as a light-touch read.

Net result: a quiet creator whose public footprint is his work, a free Chapter 5 and a long-running series his fans love. We couldn't confirm the charity events tied to his games from pages we opened, so we've left them out rather than guess.
