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

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has achieved remarkable success, selling over a million copies, as announced by publisher Kepler Interactive. This debut RPG from developer Sandfall Interactive initially soared with 500,000 copies sold within the first 24 hours of its release, and it has now 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 expressed on social media over the weekend.

It's important to note that concurrent records only reflect a portion of the player base. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was also released on 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 total number of players engaging with the game over the weekend was likely much higher, indicating its widespread popularity.

In IGN's 9/10 review of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, it was hailed as a "modern RPG classic." Developed by the newly formed studio Sandfall Interactive, this turn-based RPG draws heavily 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 it. The game's narrative centers on the crew's journey to the continent's edge to confront and destroy The Paintress.
