Surprise hit Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has penetrated the hearts of many on multiple levels. Now there will be live events matching the game – and they were so in demand that they sold out in a short time.
What type of events are we talking about? In particular, the soundtrack of the game has made a name for itself not only among fans but has also broken several records. Among other reasons, a concert series was created, where one can listen to the enchanting sounds with a live orchestra at a total of 4 dates.
The concerts are set to take place in Lyon, Paris (2 x), and Montpellier between October 25 and 31, 2025, thus initially remaining in France. The tickets for all 4 concerts sold out in just about 45 minutes, which is why the team behind Clair Obscur was surprised and full of anticipation when they reached out to the community via X.com:
Woww!! The tickets for the French concert series “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 – A Painted Symphony” are sold out! […] If you missed this event, don’t worry, there will be many more opportunities next year as we are working to present you the official international concert series in 2026!
It seems that next year, other countries will also enjoy the live soundtrack. In the comments under the post, there are mainly voices from the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria, and the USA, who are sad about this missed opportunity. However, where the concerts will be held in 2026 is currently still unknown.
There should still be a small remaining stock for the two concerts in Paris on October 28 and 29. These will be released on September 11 at 10:00 CEST via expedition33.bleucitron.net. So if you’re planning to go to Paris this year, you might want to try your luck here.
A soundtrack that resonates – not just among gamers
What makes the soundtrack so special? Not only in our review could the soundtrack of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 impress, but also with many other gamers and media, such as our colleagues from GameStar, it was noted for its emotional depth and the unique atmosphere it creates.
Furthermore, the soundtrack seems to be widely popular outside the gaming world. In France, three titles topped the Spotify Viral Top 50. However, the music captivates not only in the developers’ home country: In over five European countries, the soundtrack reached number one in iTunes downloads. Overall, it accounts for 24 placements in the top 5 on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon.
In addition, the musical accompaniment of the game has already gathered over 18 million streams and reached number 1 in the Classical Album and Classical Crossover Album charts by Billboard. In the official British Soundtrack Album charts, it climbed to rank 13 – a clear indication of its broad resonance.
Responsible for the composition is Lorien Testard, while Alice Duport-Percier lends her distinctive voice to many of the pieces. Voice actor icon Ben Starr not only takes a role in the game, he is also part of the soundtrack and had to record it under difficult conditions: “I’ve been in this industry for 5 minutes”: Voice actor helps with the soundtrack of Clair Obscur, creating a disadvantage for himself
