"Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Hits 1 Million Sales in 3 Days"

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has achieved remarkable success, selling over a million copies shortly after its launch, as announced by publisher Kepler Interactive. The debut RPG from developer Sandfall Interactive initially soared by reaching a sales milestone of 500,000 copies within just 24 hours, and it has now impressively doubled that figure.

"And here we are. Three days after launch. One million copies sold. Thank you for believing in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33," the studio said on social media over the weekend.

It's important to note that concurrent records do not reflect the full player base. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was released on multiple platforms including PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X and S, and was available on day one through the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. This suggests that the actual number of players who engaged with the game over the weekend is likely much higher, indicating the game's widespread popularity.

In IGN's 9/10 review of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, the game was hailed as a "modern RPG classic." Developed by the newly established studio Sandfall Interactive, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a turn-based RPG that draws significant inspiration from genre classics. It follows a group of Expeditioners navigating a post-apocalyptic world where a giant entity known as The Paintress annually etches a new number, erasing anyone older than that number. The game's narrative centers on joining the crew on a journey to the continent's edge to destroy the Paintress.
