Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has officially sold over 3.3 million units in just 33 days, as confirmed by Kepler Interactive and developer Sandfall Interactive. The turn-based RPG launched on 24 April 2025 for PS5, Xbox, and PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), and is also available on Game Pass.
Clair Obscur had a huge start—500,000 units sold on day one, 1 million within three days, and 2 million in under two weeks. Another 1.3 million copies have been sold since, making it one of the fastest-selling RPG debuts this year.
Set in a dreamlike world inspired by Belle Époque France, Expedition 33 follows a group of heroes trying to stop the mysterious Paintress, who erases people by painting their age. With only one year left to live, the party embarks on a final journey to end the cycle of death.
What sets the game apart is its reactive turn-based combat—a hybrid system blending classic JRPG elements with real-time dodges, parries, and precision aiming. You build your team with customised gear, skills, and character synergies, keeping every battle tactical and engaging.
Visually stunning in Unreal Engine 5 and backed by an emotional soundtrack, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a standout debut for Sandfall Interactive—and a must-play for RPG fans.
