Just before we set out on Expedition 33 we should take in a bit more of the lore on our way with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
This is the week that we can all set out into a new world with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC if we so want to. The game is ready to fully launch on April 24th with all that we have seen up to now for the game. That does not mean that we have had all of the fun insights into the game and there is still a bit of the lore that Sandfall Interactive has been holding on to so they can entice us all just a little bit more. We do need to have a good reason to experience what Expedition 33 is about to undertake, after all. That said, there are still some out there who would like to know more, so here we go with more of the lore and a bit of a taste of yet another of the voice talent that will be bringing the game to life for us all. If you are okay with very minor spoilers in the end.
Those who are good with getting a few things spoiled here for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, can have a taste of Jennifer English narrating a bit of the game and how we ended up where we are in the game. It looks like the world was shattered about sixty-seven years ago, and we will hear that quite a bit, and the Paintress is still out there painting all manner of death and chaos. That, obviously, is not a great thing and there is a ragtag group set to make sure that all ends. That is when Expedition 33 kicks off and takes up the charge to make sure the Paintress is finally stopped. Yes, that is the most overview of it all, but I did not want to be the one to spoil any of this for you. You can do that for yourself by jumping down and watching the latest video we have for the game. If you truly cannot wait just a few more days for the game to launch out there. We are talking only two from the time of this update going live here.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 — Official Lore
Each year, the Paintress inscribes the cursed number on her monolith — and each year, an expedition sets out to end her reign. None have ever returned, but they have laid the trail for those who come after.
Sixty-seven years after their world shattered in the Fracture, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 follows the idealists still daring to dream of a future for Lumière.
In this trailer — narrated by Jennifer English (voice of Maelle in the English version) — step into Maelle’s world on the eve of her departure with Expedition 33.
One last chance to destroy the Paintress, so that she may never paint death again.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 will release on April 24, 2025, on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Epic Games Store.
Did you learn much more for the lore here from Expedition 33 or was it mostly the same bit with just a new voice taking us along for the ride? Will we actually be able to end the Paintress in the game or will this have a very dark ending for us to have to deal with when all is said and done? When will we get to hear all of the other voices or will that all be saved for the final build of the game on launch? Explore the page a bit more and then leave your thoughts and findings down in the comment section. There is still some time for more to come out for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and we will share it here as soon as it does. Please keep on checking in for all of that and much, much more as the days, weeks, and months carry onward for us all. It is going to be one amazing ride in the end.
