JRPG darling Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 launched just two days after Bethesda shadow-dropped Oblivion Remastered, which might seem like incredibly unfortunate timing on the surface, but developer Sandfall Interactive and now publisher Kepler Interactive have both been very much taking it in stride.
Despite launching dangerously close to Oblivion Remastered's orbit, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been met with near universal acclaim and remarkably strong sales, shifting a million copies in just three days. Naturally, Kepler is happy with the game's reception, with senior portfolio manager Matt Handrahan telling TheGameBusiness he was never worried it would conflict too much with a new Elder Scrolls release.
