Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5)

Absolutely incredible game! Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is one of the most unique and original stories I’ve experienced in a very long time. The world, characters, and atmosphere are beautifully crafted, and the emotional storytelling keeps you hooked from beginning to end. What really stands out is how the game modernises turn-based combat — it keeps the strategic elements of classic RPGs while adding real-time mechanics that make every battle feel dynamic and engaging. The visuals, soundtrack, and overall presentation are stunning, and everything feels polished and memorable. Easily one of the best RPG experiences I’ve had in years. 10/10!

The most beautiful game released! the music, the graphics, the story, the characters, the art..... stunning!!! I am addicted to this game! The combat is fun, with a turn based style and skill checks it isn't too hard to figure out. The abilities are fun and have so many varieties you can replay multiple times and still not get bored. 10/10 would recommend!

lair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a jaw-dropping RPG that grabs you from the first frame. The world is utterly mesmerising—rich with towering foliage, dreamlike architecture, and painterly skies. It doesn’t just look good; it feels handcrafted, every scene like stepping into a living work of art. The story is something else. Deeply strange, melancholic, and totally original, it follows a world where people are “erased” by an enigmatic figure called the Paintress. It’s eerie, emotional, and refreshingly different. The voice acting is proper brilliant too—Charlie Cox and Andy Serkis lead a top-tier cast that brings real weight and nuance to every line. What really blew me away, though, was the combat. This isn’t your usual boring turn-based fare. You actively dodge, parry, and time attacks even during enemy turns. It’s fast, responsive, and completely changes how turn-based RPGs should feel. Honestly, it puts most others to shame. My only issue was that a few conversations had oddly mismatched mouth movements, which pulled me out of the moment now and then. Still, it’s a small blemish which isn't noticeable unless you really focus on it, otherwise incredible experience. Clair Obscur Expidition 33 is bold, beautiful, and unmissable.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a breathtaking love letter to the golden age of RPGs, wrapped in a bold, modern package. From the moment the game begins, you're drawn into a world where phenomenal music breathes life into every moment — a soaring, atmospheric score that evokes both emotion and wonder, perfectly complementing the game’s themes and story beats. The turn-based combat is sharp, inventive, and refreshingly interactive. Rather than passively watching the enemy’s turn, you're involved in defending and reacting, adding a layer of skill that keeps encounters engaging and dynamic. It’s deeply satisfying and reminiscent of classic systems while introducing its own unique flair. Fans of older RPGs will find plenty of respectful nods to classics like Final Fantasy. From subtle visual cues and thematic echoes to the sense of grand, character-driven storytelling, the influence is clear — yet Expedition 33 never feels derivative. It honours its inspirations while carving out a strong identity of its own. The story is truly exceptional, with well-written characters and twists that come at just the right moments to keep you guessing. It strikes a rare balance between emotional depth and thrilling plot development, ensuring you're hooked right up to the end. Importantly, it’s not a bloated 60-hour grind. Instead, it delivers a tightly woven experience that respects your time while still offering rich replayability. In short, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a modern RPG classic in the making — a game that draws from the past, dazzles in the present, and will be remembered long into the future.

This game really surprised me. The art style is absolutely beautiful and unlike anything else I’ve played recently. The world feels mysterious and emotional, and the music adds a lot to the atmosphere. Combat is slower and more thoughtful than a typical action RPG, but once you understand it, it becomes very satisfying. Definitely a game for people who enjoy story, mood, and strong visuals.

A wonderfully crafted, inventive, and unique video game which combines traditional role-playing elements with a modern parry/dodge system. The music is exceptional, the acting superb, with enough variation in character traits, level design, score, etc. to keep the game fresh throughout. My only critique, aside from some performance issues and sub-par animations, is that the lightning in the game is quite poor. Very high contrast with lots of volumetric fog, excessively dark shadows, and glaringly bright highlights. Otherwise, a near masterpiece whose ending with stay with me forever. If I could have given it four and a half stars, I would have.

Perfect. I don't say that lightly. This has gone into my top 3 all time games and I've been gaming for 30 years. The gameplay is incredibly addictive, simple premises with infinite possibilities. The visuals are stunning. The music is gorgeously. The story is engrossing and emotional. The actings is believable and the characters are well written. Just buy the damn game right now. Do yourself a favour.

Easily the best game I've played for some time. I got so hooked on this game I played it through twice, and still wanted to watch some of my favourite content creators playing it too. Such an incredible emotional rollercoaster of a game with stunning visuals, enjoyable combat mechanics and wonderful characters.

Perfecta entrega, rápidos. El juego genial

Great game and in good condition

This is an amazing game!

Per chi ama i combattimenti a turno, bellissimo. Ambientazioni originali, creature meravigliose, la storia MOLTO bella. Super consigliato, forse anche a chi non ama il genere perchè i combattimenti sono sfidanti, non sempre semplici e molto soddisfacenti

This is an excellent game, it's challenging in a good way, and the story and music are epic. I highly recommend.
