Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 officially turns one-year old today, and fans have been speculating over the past few weeks about what to expect from Sandfall Interactive to celebrate the occasion.
It's hard to believe just how massive Clair Obscur has become in just a year's time, reaching heights that nobody could have predicted since its 2025 launch. Rumors of a new DLC shadow drop or even a major announcement regarding the next game have been spreading, largely based on Sandfall's surprise release of the Verso's Drafts DLC after their 2025 GOTY win at The Game Awards.
Well, the big day has finally arrived, and Sandfall Interactive have officially issued a statement on X regarding what fans can expect on the 1-year anniversary, including an update on the highly anticipated sequel and new DLC. Clair Obscur 2 Gets Official Update From Sandfall In an official post from the Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 account on X, developers have clarified that fans will NOT be getting any "major DLC" or expansions for the game on the anniversary, nor will they be getting any official news or updates on the highly anticipated sequel.
When asked if there will be any DLC or new game updates, developers confirmed that there won't be an official sequel announcement today, a slightly disappointing yet not all that surprising update for fans who were really hoping for something big on the game's 1-year birthday. While an official sequel announcement and major DLC are off the table for Clair Obscur fans today, they won't be left completely empty-handed.
According to another official post on X, Sandfall will be releasing some"minor" DLC in the form of some fresh hair-cuts for the Expedition crew. Clair Obscur Gets Official New Anniversary DLC Today While it's not the major DLC that fans were hoping for, Sandfall is rolling out an official new update for players that adds several new haircut options for its beloved characters. The update will be available today and doesn't require any additional purchases.
Gustave's Anniversary haircut can be purchased at the Gestral Merchant near Stone Wave Cliffs, whilst the other characters' Anniversary haircuts are available at the Gestral Merchant near Grosse Tête on the Overworld map.
