Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Future Plans

The success of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 continues to soar, breaking records and expanding its fanbase. Amidst this excitement, Expedition 33's Lead Writer, Jennifer Svedberg-Yen, engaged with fans on Instagram, addressing their queries about future content and revisiting past expeditions.
While Svedberg-Yen did not confirm any DLC plans outright, she offered a hopeful outlook that suggests an expansion might be in the works. She remarked, "We’ve always said if there is strong desire from the players that we would love to do something more, and based on the response so far, I’d say chances are good."

She also mentioned that the team at Sandfall Interactive is still coming to terms with the game's rapid success, having been released just a week ago. While the possibility of a DLC remains uncertain, it's evident that the developers are keen on exploring this avenue. With Expedition 33 currently holding the title of the highest-rated game of 2025 with a Metacritic score of 92, the future looks incredibly promising for the French studio.
