Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Hits 1M Sales in 3 Days

May 27,25(9 months ago)

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has soared past the million-copy mark, as announced by publisher Kepler Interactive. This debut RPG from developer Sandfall Interactive not only achieved a remarkable sales milestone of 500,000 copies within its first 24 hours but has now doubled that number.

"And here we are. Three days after launch. One million copies sold. Thank you for believing in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33," the studio said on social media over the weekend.

PlayThe game's success doesn't stop at sales. According to SteamDB, Clair Obscur hit an impressive concurrent peak of 121,422 players on Steam over the weekend. This number surpasses the concurrent peak of any RPG from renowned developer Atlus, including Metaphor: ReFantazio, which launched in October 2024 and reached a peak of 85,961 players.

While concurrent records offer a snapshot, they don't reflect the full scope of the game's reach. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is available on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X and S, and was a day-one release on the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription. This suggests that the actual number of players engaging with the game over the weekend is 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 established 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 sees players joining the crew on a quest to the continent's edge to confront and destroy the Paintress.
