[p]We’ve finally released the first DLC pack for Trombone Champ: Unflattened, the UNDERTALE + DELTARUNE Song Pack, available now for $7.99 USD. Bring your best intonation. Or don’t. Some people insist it’s all about intent anyway.[/p][p]
[/p][p]A parallel timeline just leaked into the Trombiverse, bringing heartfelt anthems, reality‑warping boss themes, and a salesman you probably shouldn’t trust, all on brass. Veterans may feel a sudden surge of… resolve. Newcomers may discover that, no, you actually can’t dodge everything forever.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Six Tracks Enter. Your Lung Capacity Leaves.[/p][p]From UNDERTALE[/p][p]Megalovania - Short rests. Long judgments. One very patient skeleton. Try not to have… you know… that kind of time.[/p][p]Hopes and Dreams ~ SAVE the World - For when the soundtrack stacks every motif you’ve ever cared about and asks if you’ve still got the determination to keep sliding.[/p][p]Battle Against a True Hero - Spears flying, BPM spiking, and zero room for mercy. You know exactly who this is for.[/p][p]

[/p][p]From DELTARUNE[/p][p]BIG SHOT - Take the deal. Become a real (tromboner). Don’t click the blue hyperlinks.[/p][p]Black Knife - Frost in the air, questions you definitely didn’t ask, and a route you swear you’re not on.[/p][p]The World Revolving - CHA… (ahem) a certain jester insists you can do anything. Your intonation strongly disagrees.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Each track has been mapped for VR trombone performance, complete with reactive environments, bespoke slide patterns, and the exact amount of chaos necessary to make you question every decision that led you here. Improv, Campaign, Freeplay: play them your way, SPARE nothing, and try not to get judged. By yourself... or anyone wearing a hoodie.[/p][p]
[/p][p]Slide back into the Trombiverse with six of indie gaming’s most beloved tracks, now filtered through the most dignified instrument ever conceived. (No, really. Stop laughing.)[/p][p]

February, despite being the shortest month, is one of the most important times of the year. Without February, we wouldn’t have time to celebrate the really crucial stuff, like Groundhog Day or Frozen Yogurt Day. There’s a lot to love this month, and that’s why we decided to make February “Toots of Love” in the Trombiverse. Toots of Love has many exciting features, including weekly unlocks for our favorite people in the world—Trombone Champ: Unflattened fans.

The unlocks will drop on average, twice a week from February 5th until March 1st.

So, you’ve conquered the campaign, played through the community’s best hits with custom songs, and now you’re faced with the empty void of existence. Don’t worry—we’ve got you covered! We have some amazing tracks lined up for you to play and challenge yourself with. We’ll be hosting high score challenges in our Discord so join in.

There will be five new songs for you to master. Think you can handle them?




Even though we’ve added a ton of trombones and unique sounds to toot with, the community demands more. “I NEED MORE TROMBONES IN MY LIFE!” We heard you. We’re adding some lovely Trombones throughout Toots of Love. And hey, if you can complete all the new songs, then you’ll unlock a secret, mystical trombone. So make sure your collection is complete, and get tootin’!




Love is in the air, and so is a brand-new outdoor environment! We’ve refreshed the scene to create the perfect atmosphere–whether you’re here to vibe, perform, or just soak it in.
But that’s not all! The audience is feeling the energy too, so they’ve dressed up to match the mood. Expect fresh threads, a new ambiance, and a setting that truly sets the stage for an unforgettable experience.

Whether you’re enjoying Valentine’s Day or Singles Awareness Day, hop in and let the good vibes roll!



Added Timed Unlock: "Cupid's Wild Picks"
New unlocks throughout February!
Transformed the "New Year’s Outdoor Environment" to the "Valentine’s Outdoor Environment":

Added Valentine’s themed background banners and elements

Happy New Year! We’re kicking things off with a brand-new, FREE content update for Trombone Champ: Unflattened. There’s so many juicy things we’ve packed into this update and can’t wait for you all to try them.





We’ve introduced a custom song-scanning feature that automatically detects any custom tracks you’ve downloaded on Quest. No more fussing around in folders—just open the game, press a button and you’ll see your custom songs ready to play!

Plus, we’ve added a handy “Custom Songs” album to the campaign menu so you can jump right to those.





Step out into a gorgeous, snowy landscape—all without freezing your lips! This fresh, frosty environment is available now, and is the base to a whole series of outdoor environments we’ll be expanding to.



You asked for it, and we delivered: brand-new trombones have arrived, including a much-requested community favorite. We won’t spoil all the fun—but it has something to do with beans! A new mythical creature has also appeared along with a new fish trombone!


We’ve added a Pitch Assist option to the Settings menu, so even if you suck, your trombone playing won’t make you deaf. This feature is completely optional and won’t affect your high scores, so feel free to turn it on (or off) whenever you like. Perfect for streaming your best performances to the world.



We realized “Simplified mode” might have sounded too… simple and some players were ignoring it. So we renamed it to “Unflattened mode.” These maps were hand-mapped to really take advantage of Unfalttened’s VR mechanics to the fullest and some are some of the most fun ways to play the songs. Even if you’re a pro player, definitely give the “Unflattened mode” a chance!
