Solace Inc. Patch Notes — December 14, 2025
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hey guys! Happy holidays! I've got an early christmas present for you all, a content update for Solace Inc.!
Devlog Video
I made a devlog to go along with this update, I go over the history and development of the game as well as going in depth into what's new in this update
(would appreciate it if you gave it a watch and maybe hitting that like & subscribe 👉👈)
New Characters
This update focuses primarily on adding new recruits, I've added in a ton of new ones which brings the total character count up to 306 as of right now, which is very close to the world record of most playable characters in a video game currently held by Fire Pro Wrestling Returns, which has 327.
My plan was to keep adding in characters until I hit 330, but I ran out of steam and decided to stop at 300, although I may add in more characters in the future to surpass the world record.
In addition to new characters, I've also made a few changes to some of the alternates as well as some balance changes to some of the "older" recruit to match the power creep a little.
Elemental Types
Recruits now have an element type assigned to them, which can be Fire, Water, Air, Earth, Metal, Light, Love, Cosmic, and Null. Elements have one or more weaknesses to other elements and will take extra damage from them.
Battle Power
I've reworked the difficulty a little, difficulty now scales with how many recruits you have unlocked instead of it increasing slightly each mission, so the game now gets harder with each recruit you have unlocked and for missions you haven't beaten yet it will cap out at certain values (ex. on week 1 if you have 50 recruits unlocked it'll only count as if you had 30 or so)
Research for Strength and Vitality now scales with this as well, so you have more upgrades you can spend your money one
I've also added a Battle Power stat, which is an overall representation of how powerful your recruits and enemies are, this stat will appear on the main menu and on the top left during missions, this is to give you a better idea of how powerful your recruits are
Playable Enemies
In addition to Chrono Corp receiving a few buffs such as increased max energy and all troops being playable, I've also added in the option to capture enemies with a Chrono Sphere to unlock them as troops, I've also added in a new Chrono Corp exclusive miniboss that utilizes this
Imposter Recruits
I've also added in a new rare enemy which are Imposter Recruits, they will appear slightly off and if you upgrade their passive they will reveal themselves
As always if you have any bug reports or feedback, please DM me on discord (@aplove) and I'll try to respond when I can
Thank you for playing! Enjoy!
