- Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is off to a great start at The Game Awards 2025.
- The title has already won two awards, taking home the Best Independent Game and Best Performance titles.
- At this rate, the RPG could win across all the nominated categories.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 made a new record when it became the most nominated title at The Game Awards a few weeks ago. Since then, expectations have been high for the title, with many even predicting a complete sweep across all categories.
While it remains to be seen if the RPG will actually dominate across all nominated categories, it is certainly off to a great start. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has now won the best independent game award at the event.
Why it matters: This RPG came from a brand new studio, making its accolades and achievements all the more impressive.
The Best Independent Game category saw the following nominations:
- Absolum
- Ball x Pit
- Blue Prince
- Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
- Hollow Knight: Silksong
Among these titles, Sandfall Interactive’s first release was always the favorite to claim the award, so this outcome is hardly a surprise.
While accepting the award, Sandfall Interactive noted that its ambitions resulted in something special for everyone. The studio is extremely proud of everything it achieved and dedicated the award to indie teams around the globe.
Of course, this is likely just the beginning for what could be a major success story at The Game Awards. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has also won an award for the Best Performance, with this accolade going to Jennifer English, who voiced Maelle in the RPG.
If Sandfall Interactive continues to take awards home one after another, it could very well make history at The Game Awards today.
