Bug Fixes and Localization Improvements

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has just released its first update since launch. Sandfall Interactive shared details about Hotfix 1.2.2 on their Steam blog on April 30, emphasizing significant bug fixes and localization enhancements.

The update addresses critical in-game issues such as the soft-lock caused by stunning the Grown Bourgeon and other soft-lock problems on the world map. Additionally, the patch improves the French, German, and Chinese localizations, ensuring a smoother experience for players across different regions.

The developers are committed to ongoing improvements and have promised more updates soon. While fans eagerly await these enhancements, there's also excitement about potential DLCs. The lead writer of Expedition 33 hinted at the possibility of future DLCs in response to fan queries on Instagram, citing the game's strong sales performance as a promising sign.

Expedition 33 Director Recommends Another RPG Which Was Released on the Same Day

In a delightful cross-promotion, Sandfall Games' Creative Director Guillaume Broche recommended another RPG that launched on the same day as Expedition 33. On April 30, via Expedition 33’s Twitter (X) account, Broche encouraged fans to explore The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, describing it as "another great turn-based RPG that was also released last week, and made with love by an awesome team."

This recommendation came as a response to The Hundred Line’s co-director Kazutaka Kodaka, who earlier praised Expedition 33 on Twitter (X) on April 28. Kodaka invited fans to enjoy both games, stating, "Even after you finish Expedition 33, this Japanese cult game will still be here, waiting for you!"

Despite competing with other RPGs like Expedition 33 and Oblivion Remastered, The Hundred Line has received a "Very Positive" rating on Steam. Meanwhile, Expedition 33 continues to dominate as the highest-rated game of 2025, achieving over 1 million sales in just three days.
