Clair Obscur Expedition 33: This French video game is a hit (15 tweets)

Since its release on April 24, Clair Obscur Expedition 33 has been a hit. It's rare to see a video game succeed in creating such a consensus among gamers, and the icing on the cake is that this one is French! Praised by internet users, this visually stunning universe is developed by Sandfall Interactive, a company based in Montpellier. This dystopian J-RPG, available on Xbox and PS5, is praised for its moving storytelling, exceptional soundtrack, wonderful settings, and dark characters. Obviously, to try it is to adopt it.
