Paris-based indie studio Tactical Adventures is stepping up its game, announcing a majority investment from Kepler Interactive—the publisher behind Sifu, Tchia, Scorn, and the upcoming Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. This partnership means big things for Solasta II, the studio’s next tactical RPG, set to hit Early Access in 2025.
Founded in 2018 by Mathieu Girard, Tactical Adventures made its mark with Solasta: Crown of the Magister, a tactical RPG that brought D&D-style strategy to life with faithful SRD 5.1 mechanics. Last December, they revealed Solasta II at The Game Awards, and now, with Kepler in their corner, they’re gearing up for an even bigger sequel.
“We’re delighted to join the Kepler family! It’s a group of creative independent studios that align closely with our values, allowing us to better envision and amplify the launch of Solasta II,” says Girard. “Kepler’s collaborative model perfectly matches Tactical Adventures’ goals, as the studio will benefit from Kepler Interactive’s expertise in marketing and publishing while retaining control over our production and editorial independence.”
Kepler Interactive’s CEO, Alexis Garavaryan, is equally excited about the partnership. “It is with great pride that we welcome Tactical Adventures into the Kepler collective. When bringing on new studios or partners, alignment of values and making sure we elevate the entire group are key priorities for us, and it’s a decision we consider carefully.”
“Tactical’s commitment to authenticity aligns perfectly with our vision. With Solasta, they crafted a standout tactical RPG that resonated deeply with the passionate community they have nurtured over the years, and we’re excited to continue supporting their mission while welcoming their fresh perspective and expertise to the family.”
With Kepler backing them, Tactical Adventures is going all-in on Solasta II, promising a game that stays true to its roots while pushing tactical RPGs even further. Players can wishlist it now ahead of its Early Access release next year, with a playable demo coming soon.
