I think it crosses over a lot of themes rather than just focusing on a single theme like UNDERTALE did.
>Fate
>Agency
>Authorship
>Identity
These are the 4 themes I think DELTARUNE is focused on.

Deltarune is about how your choices don't matter.
You're literally told this at the very start.

I played a lot of vidya and I must say DELTARUNE presents its themes in a very compelling way.

Yeah, and Flowey tells you at the start of UNDERTALE it's either kill or be killed, and you prove Flowey wrong.

Everyone's talking about it?
The whole reason it was introduced was to lead into the main plot of the game: the resurrection of Dess (a conspiracy between Carol, Asgore and Kris)

You mean the dino girl that isn't a part of the prophecy and is in for a reality check in the future? You mean she tells you that?

Yes, did I ever claim so? I'm not saying DELTARUNE is UNDERTALE, I'm saying Toby as an author is not known to flat out state the themes from the get-go.

Escapism and fate. It's very obvious in Chapters 3 and 4.

>So what is DELTARUNE about?
Purpose and belonging seems to be the over-arching themes. The purpose/belonging within society, within family, in school, in church, the purpose in the context of the prophecy, the way characters like Spamton and Tenna have lost their purpose, heck even Berdley goes through his little arc of losing purpose as "the smartest one", it's the one thing that seems to tie the various plots together.
