Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 devs held blind auditions, so they didn't know they landed talent from Final Fantasy and Baldur's Gate 3 until after they picked them

Clair Obscur ending.

You don’t always know what you’re going to get when you open up your casting call to blind auditions. For the team at Sandfall Interactive, this meant judging every audition in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 solely by the performance, not by famous names.

As CEO and Creative Director Guillame Broche explains in a recent interview with Pirate Software, this process led to a genuine surprise. “It was, yeah, blind auditions, which is very funny because we got Ben Starr and Jennifer English, but when they sent their audition, we didn’t even know it was them. So it was just random, and they were just that good.”
