Sandfall Interactive’s Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has quickly emerged as a success story, reaching a sales milestone that perfectly aligns with its name. The developers announced via social media that the French RPG has sold a remarkable 3.3 million copies 33 days after release.
This impressive figure was achieved on the game’s 33rd day since release, a striking coincidence that even surprised the development team. This rapid ascent builds on the title’s earlier success, having already surpassed two million copies sold within its first two weeks.
For Sandfall Interactive, this achievement is particularly noteworthy as Expedition 33 is the studio’s debut release, despite its team comprising experienced developers, many of whom previously worked at Ubisoft. The game’s strong reception from critics and players has defied expectations for a new studio’s first title, especially in such a competitive landscape. The reported 3.3 million figure refers explicitly to sold copies, implying the actual player count is likely higher when accounting for Game Pass subscribers.
With such rapid success in just over a month, many are already looking to the future. There’s positive news on that front, as the studio’s COO has indicated they already have ideas for the next Clair Obscur game.
