While some of thebest JRPGsaround are synonymous with lofty run times, promising love letter to the genre Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is taking mercy on your free time.
Over onTwitter, developer Sandfall Games says the turn-based RPG will take around 30 hours to complete the main game and “as much side content for our completionist Expeditioners.”
The developer goes on to say that pricing you might have seen from local retailers is “accurate” and that the team “can’t wait for you to get your hands on the game.” At the time of writing, most are charging around $50 for the upcoming RPG, which isn’t bad when you consider that $70 is becoming the norm.
“We’ve seen a few questions regarding the price and expected playtime of Expedition 33,” the developer says. “We are a small team with an Indie spirit, and we’re creating something we believe is truly special. We aren’t an AAA studio, this is our first game, and we want as many people discovering our world as possible.”
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is set to release next spring and is packing some serious vocal talent. As we previously reported, you canexpect actors from Baldur’s Gate 3 and Final Fantasy 16alongside some Hollywood talent like Charlie Cox and Andy Serkis. Good vibes all around.
Clair Obscur devs are “not hiding” the influence of Persona and Final Fantasy 8, 9, and 10 but want to “find our own direction.”
