Fortunately, contradiction doesn't mean it cannot be solved. The image is an "Open End".

The twitter confirm "Complete Closure".

I cannot draw a door which is both "Open" and "Close", that's how I read contradiction. But they're literally two different doors! The main story of Undertale is the Normal Mode, with a Pacifist Ending. Undertale needs no sequel, because the story is complete.

Hard Mode is not the same story as the story of Undertale. It is a different timeline altogether. One where monsters from the CORE ended up in the Ruins. Since the door to the Ruins is still one-way, that means the monsters in the CORE were there the whole time.

Meaning the timeline split happens before the move to NEW HOME. And that happened before Chara's death.

So we can't say that it's the same story anymore. Hard Mode is not a sequel to Undertale.

The statements don't contract. They're referring to two different things.

As I said at the start of this post-They're literally two different doors. One is open, the other closed.
