Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been a major commercial success: the game shipped roughly 500,000 units within 24 hours of its April 24, 2025 launch, reached 1 million copies three days later and 2 million within about two weeks, and was publicly reported at 3.3 million copies sold 33 days after release — with later reporting and internal developer comments pushing that figure to ~4.4 million and an official publisher/developer update confirming the title surpassed five million units by October 8, 2025. For coverage of those milestones see the RPG Site announcement and subsequent reporting and the Gematsu breakdown of the publisher’s update. (rpgsite.net)
Supporting context: those headline sales came despite day‑one availability on Xbox Game Pass (Microsoft/Kepler noted it was one of Game Pass’s biggest third‑party launches in 2025), which makes the sizable paid‑unit milestones notable because Game Pass participation can suppress traditional boxed/digital purchases. Developers and outlets have detailed the timeline and internal comments — for example, an interview and reports that lifted the number from the public 3.3M figure to an internally stated 4.4M before the publisher’s 5M+ announcement — showing sustained momentum across platforms.
