The eagerly awaited title from the emerging French studio Sandfall Interactive, known as Clair Obscur, is already making waves in the gaming community. Early reviews from prominent gaming media outlets are showering the game with praise for its deep narrative, mature tone, and exhilarating combat, with some reviewers likening it to a modern take on Final Fantasy.
RPG Gamer's reviewer was particularly struck by the fact that Clair Obscur, despite being the debut project of a young development team, delivers the same rich gaming experience in just a few hours as one might expect from a studio with decades of experience. If this quality is sustained throughout the game, Expedition 33 (as it's also known) could be a strong contender for accolades at The Game Awards 2025.
An IGN journalist, after experiencing the demo gameplay, was left wanting more. They expressed a keen desire to delve deeper into the game's world and engage in further battles, marveling at the impressive achievements of such a youthful development team.
Kotaku's reviewer went as far as to predict that Clair Obscur will cement its status as a turn-based classic, possibly becoming the next Final Fantasy. They lauded the innovative integration of Quick Time Events (QTEs) into traditional turn-based combat, adding a fresh twist to the genre.
In addition to gameplay, reviewers have commended the game's stunning visual style and the sophisticated, mature narrative that weaves through the experience.
Clair Obscur is slated for release on April 24, 2025, and will be available on current-generation consoles, including the PS5 and Xbox Series, as well as on PC via Steam. Gamers across these platforms can look forward to immersing themselves in what promises to be a groundbreaking title from Sandfall Interactive.
