Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the most nominated title of the year at The Game Awards 2025. With its 12 nods, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is not only the most nominated game of the year, but it is also the most nominated game in Game Awards history, according to Epic Games.

In the lead-up to The Game Awards, Geoff Keighley started teasing the mysterious, glowing monolith in the middle of the California desert, which was later moved into Los Angeles. While many gamers speculated on what franchise it was tied to, the monolith's mystery was solved a little prematurely, thanks to a trademark filing.

Hot off its Game of the Year award, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is getting a “Thank You” update that’s rolling out now. It has a new playable area accessible from Act III, a photo mode, AMD FSR 4 support, Steam Deck and Xbox Ally certification, and a lot more.

Ahead of The Game Awards, the developers of the action RPG talk about time dilation, romanceable companions and other hard sci-fi effects.
