Director Hints at Exciting Switch 2 Possibilities for Clair Obscur

May 14, 2025 12:10 PM

Director Guillaume Broche has hinted that a potential version of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 for the upcoming Switch 2 could be intriguing due to the game's recent success, though no official plans are in place yet. Following its release last month on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, the game sold over a million copies in just three days, even competing with the Elder Scrolls: Oblivion remake. The developers are balancing numerous opportunities for the game, including the possibility of creating plush toys based on its character Esquie. Broche noted that while a Switch 2 port could be interesting, it would depend on the technical feasibility given Unreal Engine 5's capabilities.

Will Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 release on Switch 2?

While there are currently no official plans for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 to release on Switch 2, the director expressed interest in the possibility, depending on the game's ongoing success and technical capability.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is an action-adventure RPG known for its high-quality graphics powered by Unreal Engine 5. Developed by Sandfall Interactive, it has gained a dedicated following since its launch, standing out in a bustling gaming market. The game's unique art style and compelling gameplay have captured the attention of players and critics alike, ensuring its placement as one of the key titles to watch in the current stretch of the gaming landscape.

A million copies in three days is wild—no wonder they're eyeing the Switch 2. Here's hoping UE5 can play nice with Nintendo's hardware without dialing back those stunning visuals. (Keeping it light but informed, nodding to the game's success and the technical hurdles, without rehashing the plushie hype.)

A Switch 2 port would be awesome if they can pull off the Unreal Engine 5 magic without sacrificing too much of that gorgeous art style. Also, Esquie plushies Take my money already (Keeping it fresh by focusing on both the technical challenge and the merch potential, while staying casual and enthusiastic.)
