Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Surpasses 70,000 Peak Concurrent Players

According to SteamDB, the recently released Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has already surpassed 70,000 peak concurrent players on Steam within the first 24 hours of release. At the time of writing, the game is being played by over 65,000 players and the peak number is still rising. It’s worth noting the game is also available on Xbox Game Pass and other platforms so a significant number of players outside this platform are likely playing the game as well. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 launched on April 24 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. Pre-orders for the game are available now. The game is also on Xbox Game Pass.

 

The game’s details:

Graphics Modes

The developers at Sandfall Interactive have also confirmed additional details across both PC and console ahead of launch, so players can prepare for their upcoming expedition to destroy the Paintress and end her curse of death.

PC players will be able to fine-tune the game’s graphics to their liking with a variety of in-game settings and pre-sets (ranging from Low to Epic) to find an experience on their hardware that balances both incredible Unreal Engine 5-powered graphics and consistent framerate for a smooth gameplay experience.

Console players on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X can also look forward to playing the game in either Performance or Quality graphics modes to improve framerate or image resolution respectively, depending on their preferences.

For PlayStation 5 Pro owners, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is PlayStation 5 Pro Enhanced, meaning players on the console can also look forward to enhanced performance.

 

Pre-Load and Play Anywhere

Xbox players can pre-load the game now ahead of launch, and also take advantage of Xbox Play Anywhere capabilities when the game releases later this month.

The game’s digital release will be synced globally to launch at 12:00 a.m. PT / 3:00 a.m. ET, so players around the world will be able to start their expedition and discover the game’s many secrets and surprises together.

Trophies and Achievements

Those looking to complete their experience in Expedition 33 can also seek to claim the 55 Achievements available in-game, or 56 Trophies when including the Platinum Trophy on PlayStation 5. Select Achievements / Trophies players can work towards unlocking include:
