To rephrase that, 'DELTARUNE's world is a different one. With different characters, that have lived different lives.'

Maybe I can help explain it better. If you experienced a completely different life from the day that you were born but given the same name you currently have, would you still be the same person or would that just be a different person that looked remarkably like you? Welcome to the infinity of the multiverse.

The Delta Rune itself is actually a great representation of this. Without the Underground it has a whole new reason for existing. The three triangles could represent our main characters with the winged circle being the player themself...or it could mean something entriely different. Who the heck knows at this point? All we have is a DEMO.

Sans is the exact opposite of that though. Sans and Papyrus are most likely the broken pieces of Gaster. Something that doesn't fit into this new universe as there has been zero mention of determination in the first chapter. We know Sans from Undertale can travel across great distances with portals and is, at the very least, aware of other timelines(universes). Heck, Sans' " grocery store" is clearly GRILLBY'S with a quick "ans" scibbled on the end. They move into town right before this game starts and San's only just met Toriel the previous night

TL:DR

Toby has specifically stated that Deltarune is not a sequel and a different world from Undertale. He has not stated that it is a different UNIVERSE.
