If you're a fan of CRPGs, you're about to have something new to play very soon — the Solasta Early Access release date has just been locked in for October 2020.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister is a turn-based RPG in the style of the classic Dungeons & Dragons computer games and set in an original universe. It's been in development for quite some time — and we'll be able to play it a lot sooner than we might have expected.

Take a peek at the Solasta: Crown of the Magister Official Release Date Trailer to see what you'll be able to play next month:

Solasta: Crown of the Magister takes all of the standards of D&D gameplay and wraps them in a shiny, modern package. You'll have to roll for initiative, choose your attacks carefully, and navigate treacherous scenarios filled with deadly monsters.

This upcoming game is the product of a successful Kickstarter campaign, raising €243,855 of a €180,000 goal. That success may have contributed to a later licensing agreement with Wizards of the Coast that will allow Solasta to use the Dungeons & Dragons SRD 5.1 ruleset.

While this isn't technically a Dungeons & Dragons game, it will essentially be playing by the same rules. Now, this fantastic RPG with a wonderfully-designed combat interface is getting ready to launch on Steam Early Access in just over a month!
