The upcoming title from the young French studio Sandfall Interactive, *Clair Obscur*, is already making waves in the gaming community as it begins to receive early evaluations from gaming media. Critics are raving about its deep narrative, mature tone, and thrilling combat, with some even drawing comparisons to a modern *Final Fantasy*.
The reviewer from RPG Gamer was particularly impressed, noting that *Clair Obscur* delivers the same level of experience in just a couple of hours as a game from a studio with decades of experience. If this quality is sustained throughout the game, *Expedition 33*—as the game is also known—could be a strong contender at The Game Awards 2025.
A journalist from IGN was left wanting more after the demo session, eager to explore the game's world further and engage in more battles. They were astounded by the achievements of such a young development team.
The author from Kotaku goes as far as predicting that *Clair Obscur* will become a turn-based classic, likening it to a new *Final Fantasy*. They praised the innovative integration of QTE mechanics into traditional turn-based battles, adding a fresh twist to the genre.
Reviewers across the board have also commended the game's excellent visual style and the mature tone of its narrative, setting high expectations for its release.
*Clair Obscur* is slated to launch on April 24, 2025, and will be available on current-gen consoles (PS5 and Xbox Series) as well as PC via Steam.
