Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Wins Big At The Game Awards And Drops Massive Free Content Update As A Thank You

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 just made history by winning the most Game Awards of all time, including the coveted Game of the Year award, but developer Sandfall Interactive isn’t done just yet. During the acceptance speech for the final award of the night, the developers announced that the content update alluded to earlier in the year isn’t just coming soon – it’s out right now. You can check out the trailer below, but if you haven’t played the game, be aware that the footage contains light spoilers.

This update adds a new area to explore called Verso’s Drafts. Based on the trailer, it appears to become available in the later stages of the game, and adds several new elements, including new enemies, new story moments, new music, new outfits, and a highly-requested photo mode. It also adds new bosses in the Endless Tower, various quality-of-life improvements, performance enhancements, and incorporates Czech, Ukrainian, Latin American Spanish, Turkish, Vietnamese, Thai, and Indonesian as localized languages for the game. You can read the full patch notes here.

“Rejoin the Expedition on another journey through the whimsical hideout of a young Verso,” the YouTube description reads. “In a land crafted through joy and innocence, sometimes darkness is uncovered when imagination gets carried away.” It’s a substantial bit of content, and to reiterate, it’s free.

The update is currently available on all platforms. For more news from the Game Awards, check out the new shooter from former Apex Legends and Titanfall developers, the revival of two Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, and the reveal of a new Tomb Raider game.
