When Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 launched earlier this year everyone was already saying this game was going to clean up at the Game Awards and we a lock for winning game of the year. That couldn't have been more true as Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 absolutely cleaned house at the Game Awards winning a whopping nine awards out of the twelve it was nominated for including Game of the Year.
But that's not all, as the team was giving their acceptance speech they just casually announced that a new update for Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 is available right now. Called the "Thank You Update" the update includes new costumes, a new area to explore, a new late game boss, photo mode and more.
Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 was not just my personal game of the year for 2025, it may very well be my game of the decade so far. I honestly can't remember the last time I played a game where I was invested in the story, the world, the gameplay, the characters right from the get go. I absolutely adore this game and hope we see more from this series in the future.
