a release window and a big announcement

Clair Obscur Expedition 33 shows itself again and sells us dreams with its magnificent graphics but above all with its cast. The studio just announced some of the actors and actresses who will be in attendance, they are some very, very nice people.

This is one of the most promising games of the future. Clair Obscur Expedition 33 caused quite a stir when it was announced and is still as fascinating as ever. The game looks particularly promising and definitely very artistically inspired. We owe this emerging gem (we certainly hope so) to the Montpellier-based studio Sandfall Interactive. It’s France!

Expedition 33, a French role-playing game that promises to be surprising

A very local French game that promises us a journey into the limits of its universe where a macabre cycle touches people of all ages. A painter engraves a number and harvests the souls whose ages are written on her sad monolith. But that’s not to mention the brave men and women who do everything they can to lead expeditions to put an end to this curse. Then we start with the thirty-third, hence the title of the game. The developers have stated that the game will keep us on the edge of our seats for almost thirty hours

. So far, that’s pretty much all we knew. The rest is that it will be an RPG whose combat is turn-based, with a bit of dynamic QTE to spice things up. But the studio spoke up again, with more gameplay, but also and above all some good news: a release window. Clair Obscur Expedition 33 will therefore launch on PS5, Xbox Series and PC in spring 2025, at the beginning of the year, with a day one launch on Xbox Game Pass. Unfortunately there is no specific release date at the moment.

A 5 star cast and an extremely promising cast

On the other hand, we were treated to another important announcement: voice casting. And here it has to be said that the small studio from Montpellier pulled out all the stops as it surrounded itself with talented actresses and actors. For example, we take notes Charlie Cox, who is none other than the current daredevil (from the Netflix series, which has now become a Disney+ series). The actor will play Gustave, the chief engineer of Expedition 33. Jennifer English,

who already lent his voice to ShadowHeart in Baldur’s Gate 3, returns here in the shoes of Maelle, a shy young loner. We can also detect the presence of Rich Keeble (Good omens) et Maxence Cazorlabut the studio did not announce the two men’s roles. On the other hand, the actor Andy Serkisvery famous for his roles in Lord of the rings or even recently Planet of the Apes For his part, has found his role, that of Renoir, another important activist of the expedition, ready to do anything to defeat the painter.

Other well-known actors will also be there, such as Ben Starr (Clive from FF16), who will play Verso, a dangerous character, or Shala Nyx (The old guard), which gives Sciel, a warrior, her facial features. A 5-star casting that makes you dizzy, but above all promises very good things in terms of language. Judgment in several months. Clair Obscur Expedition 33 knows how to wait, but now we know we have to wait until early next year.
