Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was arguably 2025's biggest surprise hit, with Sandfall Interactive's debut J'RPG sweeping awards shows and quickly building an enormous fan base. No pressure for the next game, right?

Speaking in an interview with Edge magazine for issue 419, Sandfall Interactive chief operating officer and production director François Meurisse explains that while "I feel there is a bit of pressure" from fans and critics when it comes to the team's next game, "it's not so important to us."
