Expedition 33 marked merely the start; the creators have significant aspirations for Clair Obscur.
Now it’s apparent why Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has such an excessively lengthy title. While Expedition 33 refers to the particular game, Clair Obscur represents an entire series. Similar to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
The head of the French studio Sandfall, Cuillaume Broche, affirms this in a conversation with YouTuber MrMattyPlays. He also verifies that: More Clair Obscur games are on the way.
Expedition 33 is one of the narratives we wish to explore within this franchise. We cannot disclose exactly how they will manifest or the underlying concept, but one fact is clear: this will not signify the conclusion of the Clair-Obscur series.
Direct sequel unlikely
It is quite improbable that the forthcoming title will connect with the occurrences of Expedition 33. For instance, Broche himself mentions in the interview that he prefers to overlook his earlier works when crafting sequels.
Additionally, one of the primary influences for Clair Obscur is the massive franchise Final Fantasy, as Broche has repeatedly noted in the past. The Square Enix series is recognized for every main entry presenting an entirely distinct story within a new game universe. Hence, it wouldn’t be astonishing if Clair Obscur followed a similar route.
Regarding Expedition 33 itself, the adventure is likely not finished yet: The developers aim to incorporate even more accessibility options in upcoming updates, and new content and various small details
will presumably also be added in due consideration.
The success narrative of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 might still be ongoing. After all, the role-playing game is regarded as a strong candidate for Game of the Year 2025! Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is already a formidable rival, but titles like Silksong and Ghost of Yotei are also set to launch soon. Feel free to share your favorites in the comments!
