- Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was nominated in 8 categories at the 29th DICE Awards.
- It managed to win in 5 categories and even bagged the Game of the Year trophy.
- This is the game’s 495th GOTY win, extending its lead at the top of the list.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 just can’t seem to take a break from winning every possible award. It recently set the record for the most Game of the Year award wins by any game to date, and it’s now extending that lead even further.
The 29th DICE Awards were another triumphant affair for Sandfall Interactive as Expedition 33 bagged 5 wins, including the prestigious GOTY title. This puts the game’s total tally to a whopping 495 GOTY accolades.
Why it matters: Expedition 33 has cemented its place in the history books, especially due to the fact that it was up against massive teams and titles that had multiple times higher budgets than Sandfall’s RPG.

Expedition 33 was the most nominated game at the DICE Awards with 8 nominations, and managed to win 5 of those. Altogether it won:
- Outstanding Achievement in Art Direction
- Outstanding Achievement in Story
- Role-Playing Game of the Year
- Outstanding Achievement in Game Direction
- Game of the Year
This was once again a near clean sweep, but some other competitors deservedly came out on top. Other big winners of the night include Death Stranding 2, Ghost of Yotei, Hades 2, and ARC Raiders.

Notably, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 was once again snubbed as it couldn’t win any of its 3 nominations. The game developers showed their disappointment before, and will have similar sentiments now as well.
Anyhow, Expedition 33 has been a wild ride for Sandfall. The studio has stated multiple times that it didn’t expect the game to be this successful. It has outshone AAA games and emerged in the history records.
