French developer Tactical Adventures has announced Solasta II, the sequel to its popular 2021 cRPG, Solasta: Crown of the Magister. The game was revealed during the TGA 2024 pre-show and is based on the Dungeons & Dragons SRD 5.1 ruleset, set in its own original world.
Solasta II takes place decades after the events of Crown of the Magister, introducing a new group of adventurers on the continent of Neokos. They will face a powerful, corrupting villain named Shadwyn, voiced by Amelia Tyler (known for her work in Baldur's Gate III and Hades II).
Unreal Engine 5 and Gameplay Enhancements
The sequel is powered by Unreal Engine 5, promising significant visual upgrades compared to its predecessor. Players will once again control a party of four characters, who will now be fully voiced and customizable. An online co-op mode will be added during the early access phase.
Throughout the campaign, players will navigate different factions, make choices that determine their reputation, and explore the lore-rich world of Neokos.
"With Solasta II, we’re taking all that even further – pushing the system with fresh takes on tactical depth, fun and accessibility...This project is powered by ambition, respect for our players and a shared belief in the strength of what we’re building together." - Mathieu Girard, Creative Director.
Early Access and Demo
Solasta II is slated for Steam Early Access sometime in 2025. A free demo is planned for early 2025, giving players a first look at the new game. Tactical Adventures will host a developer live stream on Twitch later today.
