Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 owes its spectacular success to burning love, says Verso actor Ben Starr in an interview with GamesRadar+ and Future Games Show during the Golden Joystick Awards 2025. It "was made with love, and it was made for a very specific audience, and it just turns out that the audience for this game was bigger than people thought."
"As a huge fan of RPGs, a person who was raised on these things – what an amazing thing to have a game that is so widely loved, and celebrated, and represents so much of the reason why I continue to play games," Starr continues. "It's the reason I'm in games. And I think it's a timely story."
