Here's What We Know

This result is especially important given that Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is available on Game Pass, so the game's actual audience is much larger than the announced figure.
It is glad that the developers' bold ideas were highly appreciated by the audience and Sandfall Interactive can please us with even better games in the future.
The game is available on PS5, Xbox Series and PC.
Recall, according to the plot of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, every year a mysterious Artist draws a number on a certain monolith and people of that age, as she wrote, die. This time, she plans to write the number "33" and to stop her, a trek is being prepared, the participants of which must stop the Artist by any means necessary.
