Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Reaches Million Sales in Just Three Days

GamePass Users Not Included in Exciting Sales Milestone

The newly released turn-based RPG, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, has quickly captured the hearts of gamers. This game marks the premiere release from the French development studio Sandfall. Almost immediately following its release, it began amassing critical acclaim and achieving remarkable sales milestones. On Sunday morning, Kepler Interactive, the publisher, announced via social media that since its launch on April 24, the game has achieved sales of one million units. Within the first day, sales numbers had already reached half a million. According to an update on their BlueSky account, the statistics cited include shipments to retailers and do not account for the game's enthusiastic community of GamePass users.

Expedition 33 presents a thrilling narrative where a team of bold adventurers embarks on a mission to defeat a formidable force known as the Paintress. Annually, the Paintress inscribes a number on a monolith, sealing the fate of individuals of that age, leading to their inevitable demise. As the numbers drawn become increasingly lower, the population diminishes concurrently. Mat Smith from Engadget described Expedition 33 as manifesting a beautifully crafted and thoroughly imagined realm, praising it as a well-rounded, delightful RPG. Players can now dive into this captivating universe on platforms including PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5.
