Solasta 2 is officially set to enter Early Access on Steam today, March 12, 2026.

Developed by Tactical Adventures, the game is a party-based, turn-based RPG built on Dungeons and Dragons rules. For fans of the genre, this one has been on the radar for a while, and the wait is now over for PC players.

The game draws obvious comparisons to Baldur's Gate 3. Both titles share the D&D ruleset, and even share some familiar voice talent, including narrator Amelia Tyler and actress Devora Wilde.

That said, the two games are not quite the same beast. Tactical Adventures is a team of around 40 developers, a far cry from the roughly 400-person studio behind Larian's epic.

Rather than offering heavily scripted companions with deep romance arcs, Solasta 2 asks you to build your entire party from scratch. Your four characters are framed as a found family of orphans who grew up together. You shape their personalities, define their relationships, and guide how they interact as a group. It is a different approach, and it gives the game its own identity.

The voice cast adds to the appeal, with Ben Starr, widely known for playing Clive in Final Fantasy XVI, joining the lineup alongside Tyler and Wilde.

What Is Included in Early Access

The Early Access build covers Act 1 of the campaign, which, according to Tactical Adventures, runs about 10 to 15 hours on a standard first playthrough. If you dig into hidden bosses, bonus locations, and secret areas scattered across the map, that number can stretch well past 20 hours.

The game uses an overland world map built on hexagonal tiles with fog of war, giving exploration a tabletop feel that CEO Mathieu Girard has said was directly inspired by traditional pen-and-paper D&D campaigns.

As per the roadmap, the Early Access includes six playable classes: Cleric, Fighter, Paladin, Rogue, Wizard, and Sorcerer. These come with 13 subclasses in total, with Clerics getting three options and the remaining classes offering two each.

Multiclassing is also supported, though the level cap sits at 4 for now, which limits how far you can take those builds.

Four ancestries are available at launch: Human, Elf, Dwarf, and Gnome.

The game runs on Unreal Engine 5, which is a noticeable upgrade from its predecessor. Character creation and environments both benefit from the visual jump.

For players who find D&D character building a bit overwhelming, a Quick Creation mode is available that handles equipment, spells, stat allocation, and backgrounds automatically while still letting veteran players go fully manual.

Price

Solasta 2 Early Access is priced at $39.99 USD, 39.99 EUR, and 33.99 GBP.

Roadmap: What Is Coming After Launch

Tactical Adventures has already shared an early access roadmap outlining what can be expected to be added throughout the Early Access period. Here is what is planned for future updates:

• Multiplayer support for up to four players in online co-op

• Additional ancestries and classes beyond the current lineup

• A higher-level cap to allow deeper builds and progression

• A faction system that adds political and social depth to the world

• A crafting system for item creation and equipment customization

Solasta 2 early access roadmap

The multiplayer absence at launch will sting for those who wanted to jump in with friends from day one. That said, it is a common trade-off in Early Access launches, and the single-player content on offer seems substantial enough to keep players busy in the meantime.

Solasta 2 had already accumulated around 500,000 wishlists on Steam ahead of today's release, which speaks to the appetite for this kind of tactical RPG experience. The game also uses the updated 2024 Dungeons and Dragons ruleset, which is still relatively rare among video game adaptations of the tabletop system.

Whether or not it carves out its own space alongside Baldur's Gate 3, rather than just living in its shadow, remains to be seen. But the foundations look solid, and the Early Access approach gives Tactical Adventures the runway to refine it further.
