Overview

  • Guillaume Broche confirms Clair Obscur is the umbrella IP and that Expedition 33 is just one story within it, based on a new interview with MrMattyPlays.
  • Broche says the "only way" to move forward is to "ignore the first game completely" in order to recapture the debut’s singular, uncompromised vision.
  • Post-launch content for Expedition 33 is only hinted at, with Broche saying "We may be cooking," and no features or timelines confirmed.
  • Reporting points to a possible anthology approach influenced by Final Fantasy, suggesting future entries may be standalone rather than direct sequels.
  • Broche indicates he is already drafting ideas and potential sequels while aiming to keep the team small, leaving timelines and specifics unannounced.
