The highly anticipated game from the up-and-coming French studio, Sandfall Interactive, has begun to garner attention and praise from various gaming media outlets. Titled "Clair Obscur," this debut project is being hailed for its deep narrative, mature tone, and exhilarating combat, with some reviewers drawing comparisons to a modern-day "Final Fantasy."
RPG Gamer's reviewer was particularly impressed by how "Clair Obscur" managed to deliver a profound gaming experience within just a few hours, a feat typically associated with studios boasting years of experience. Should this quality persist throughout the game, "Expedition 33" could be a strong contender at The Game Awards 2025.
An IGN journalist, after experiencing the demo, expressed a strong desire to delve deeper into the game's world and engage in more of its battles. The achievement of such a young development team left them in awe.
Kotaku's author went as far as to predict that "Clair Obscur" will cement its status as a turn-based classic, likening it to a new "Final Fantasy." They praised the innovative integration of Quick Time Events (QTE) into traditional turn-based combat, adding a fresh twist to the genre.
Across the board, reviewers have lauded the game's striking visual style and the mature approach to its storytelling.
"Clair Obscur" is scheduled to launch on April 24, 2025, and will be available on current-generation consoles, including PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series, as well as on PC via Steam.
