Solasta 2 Release Date (Exact Time) & Details

Solasta 2 enters Steam Early Access on March 12, 2026, exclusively on PC. The Early Access build covers Act 1, which runs approximately 10 to 15 hours, and includes six classes, 13 subclasses, and multiclassing from the start. The base price is $39.99. The game runs on the 2024 revision of the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition ruleset, making it one of the few video games to implement the updated version of those rules. A full 1.0 release is not expected before early 2027.

Solasta 2 Platforms

Solasta 2 launches on PC via Steam. Developer Tactical Adventures has confirmed that a console release is planned to coincide with the 1.0 launch, targeting PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. No console builds will be available during Early Access. The first Solasta eventually shipped on PlayStation and Xbox following its own Early Access run, so the same trajectory applies here.

What Will Solasta 2 Price Be?

Tactical Adventures confirmed the Early Access pricing directly via their official Twitter account:

"The hour approaches, Adventurers! Please check the rollout info below to know when Solasta II launches into Steam Early Access in your region. Solasta II's base Early Access price will be $39.99/ 39.99€/ £33.99, with regional pricing in effect."

The original Solasta launched below the standard AAA price point, and the sequel follows the same approach. The developers have also confirmed an optional Supporter's Pack at $10/ €10/ £10, which adds cosmetic items only and has no effect on gameplay. Given that Early Access pricing typically sits below the final release price, expect the 1.0 version to cost more.

All Classes Which Are Available In Solasta 2 Early Access

Solasta 2 Early Access launches with six playable classes, each split into multiple subclasses that shape how a character performs in combat and party composition. Multiclassing is available from the start, and the level cap during Early Access sits at four.

The remaining classes are confirmed for the 1.0 release, with the full game targeting a level cap of 10.

Is Solasta 2 Based On The Dungeons & Dragons Ruleset?

Yes. Solasta 2 uses the 2024 Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition rules — the updated version of the ruleset, not the original 5e that launched in 2014. This matters in practice: the game incorporates mechanics like Ready Action for single-target spells and weapon attacks, with developer Tactical Adventures stating in a February 2026 update that they aim to expand Ready Action compatibility to most actions over time. The Early Access build includes dice-based outcomes, positioning-dependent combat, spell synergy, and the full range of tactical options that come with a faithful 5e implementation.

Baldur's Gate 3 also uses D&D 5e but made deliberate departures from the rulebook to serve its narrative-first design — dropping options like Dodge and Ready Action in favor of a smoother, more cinematic experience. Solasta 2 takes the opposite approach. Combat mechanics stay close to the tabletop source, which means more options per turn, harder decisions, and a steeper learning curve. I think that tradeoff makes Solasta 2 probably the top entry on any honest list of Baldur's Gate 3-like games — it applies the same ruleset with more fidelity and less hand-holding, and players who want the full tactical depth of 5e will find it here rather than in Larian's title.

Why Solasta 2 In Early Access?

Tactical Adventures used Early Access for the original Solasta to collect player feedback, adjust balance, and build out mechanics before the full release — and the same logic applies to Solasta 2. The developers have stated they intend the game to remain in Early Access for at least a year before hitting 1.0, placing the full launch in early 2027 at the earliest. The Early Access period will add multiplayer, additional ancestries and classes, a higher level cap beyond the current ceiling of four, factions, and crafting systems. The build available at launch covers Act 1 only, with subsequent acts arriving during the Early Access window.

Solasta 2 Trailer

The first trailer debuted at The Game Awards 2024 and focused on story, introducing the ancient threat awakening in the continent of Neokos. A second trailer followed using gameplay footage from the February 2025 demo. A third covered lore, and a fourth — released closer to the Early Access date — revealed both the launch window and the voice cast: Amelia Tyler and Devora Wilde from Baldur's Gate 3, Ben Starr from Final Fantasy 16, and Ellen Thomas from Arcane.

Worth Playing Solasta Before Solasta 2?

Probably not a requirement. The comparison holds with Baldur's Gate 3: almost no one played Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 before jumping into BG3, and Larian designed that game to stand entirely on its own. I see the same dynamic here — Solasta 2 introduces its own world, the continent of Neokos, its own cast of characters, and its own story following the Colwall siblings. The demo runs two to three hours and is available now on Steam, which offers a practical way to test the mechanics before committing to the Early Access price.
