| Update 0.5 - Character Creator: Time for an Upgrade! | 2026-06-10 | Hear ye, hear ye! A few months ago we released Solasta II in Early Access, and you were many to point out that the Character Creator needed improvements. So we went back to tinker with it some more, with the aim to release a content patch before our next big Multiplayer Early Access Update later Q3 this year. And we’re happy to say, it is now available for everyone to try out - and it’s ended up so big that we could even call it an update… The big ol’ unplanned 0.5 Content Update! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2975950/Solasta_II/ Welcome, to the new Character Creator!

| Dev Update #23 - Character Creation | 2026-02-24 | Hello future heroes of Neokos! Welcome to our final Dev Update before the release of Early Access. Only two weeks left! The studio is abuzz with anticipation, excitement, and to be honest - a sprinkle of anxiety as the game is about to leave our hands and head into the wild. They grow up so fast… That said, we’ll still be watching over it for quite some time. This is only the beginning after all, there are plenty of large updates in store! But enough dillydallying, we have a Character Creator Tool to present.

| Dev Update #15 (August) - Traps & Armors Galore! | 2025-08-05 | Good day to you, adventurers! How is summer treating you so far? Are you accruing levels of exhaustion through failing the onslaught of heat-induced Constitution saving throws, or did you manage to find a place safe and hidden from the almighty Sun (CR Unknown)? We at Tactical Adventures are pursuing the development of Solasta II through what we colloquially call the “Summer Cheese” (hon hon so French) - with a schedule full of holes due to people taking a long rest with some well deserved vacations. But worry not, yours truly remains here to share new project advancements! New project advancements AND cute animal pictures, I know some of you |
| Dev Update #14 - Summer Project Update (+ July Dev Stream) | 2025-07-08 | Praise the sun, adventurers! Actually scratch that, it’s been getting a little TOO hot for comfort lately. Summer do be hitting hard, and we poor developers have not yet developed resistance to fire damage (oh how we wish we did). On a more serious note, today we’re returning to the roots of our Dev Updates - just like we did on Crown of the Magister, it’s time to take a look at what we’re working on!

| 2024 Ruleset Update - FAQ | 2025-06-24 | Hey there folks, Two weeks ago we announced that Solasta II was switching to the 2024 Ruleset! Unsurprisingly, that led to many questions being asked - with the usual whys and hows, but also a large amount of more specific ones such as “what will happen to the Half-Elf ancestry” or “How will the Fighter’s new Tactical Mind feature work”? We’re here today with answers! Temperature too hot please just end my entire existence. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2975950/Solasta_II/ VOD of the Community Stream Before we jump into the Q&A, here is the VOD for those who missed the Community Stream from June 10th with our Creative, Game & Technical D |
| Solasta II is switching to the 2024 Ruleset | 2025-06-10 | Well folks, this is it. Big changes are coming! Ever since the announcement of Solasta II, many of you asked us if we would ever consider updating our game’s ruleset from D&D 5e’s original 2014 version described in the SRD 5.1 to the new 2024 version. To which we answered - let’s wait for the new SRD to be released… which did eventually happen on April 22nd, a little more than one month ago. Since then we’ve been working tirelessly to see if we could make that change happen! Verdict? Well, it’s today’s entire article! Wake up. Tactical Adventures finally announced the switch to the 2024 ruleset. The wait is over! https://store.steampowered.co |

| Dev Update #13 - Class Spotlight: The Wizard | 2025-05-13 | Ready your quills, students. Today we will be learning about the most refined of all classes, the distinguished and esteemed Wizard. For knowledge is power; and you are here to accumulate, to devour, to consume every last bit of it. May you have a spell penned for every situation, or rightfully suffer the consequences of your own ignorance. Only simpletons sleep in my class.

| Dev Update #12 - Class Spotlight: The Fighter (+ May Dev Stream) | 2025-04-29 | Good day recruits, Stop waving your hands and chanting your whimsical incantations, today’s Class Spotlight is on the Fighter. Pick up a weapon and start swinging, for heaven’s sake! Your job will be to be in your opponent’s face, stand your ground and make their life miserable. Sure you won’t get to play with fancy powers or colorful spells, but by the gods as your friends run out of magic or get caught out of position, you WILL still be standing firm and resolute. Now keep swinging, and don’t let me catch you slacking. For those who wish to multiclass into Monk, you may seek ol’ Kaiju’s wisdom (please don’t, Fighter/Monk is terrible). https |

| Dev Update #11 - Class Spotlight: The Cleric (& March Contest Results!) | 2025-04-15 | Hey there you wonderful folks! Today we’ll be diving into the powerful Cleric class - very likely THE most versatile class when it comes to rounding off a team. Don’t make the assumption that they are just healers; depending on their domain and spell selection, Clerics can become stalwart frontliners, devastating spell slingers, high value supports or all of the above. But before we jump into that… We have some winners to announce! And a warm welcome to Emji, the newest member of the Tactical Adventures team! May his barks be sonorous and his meals plentiful. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2975950/Solasta_II/ Of Quills & Ink - Let’s Meet |

While these nerds have to learn magic by reading books and waving wands, us superior Sorcerers are naturally gifted with it. We feel it, we mold it, we bend it to our will. Mastery of magic? Oh my dear, wait until you hear about Metamagic… My dear, I do believe someone has Twin Cast Polymorph on our offspring. They are quite fluffier than last I saw them. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2975950/Solasta_II/ It’s just in my blood… Ahhh, the Sorcerer. Always compared with the Wizard - and for good reasons!
