Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a beautiful game that follows a heartbreaking cast of characters as they attempt to end a vicious cycle. The world is heavily inspired by French folklore and imagery, with a heart-wrenching soundtrack to match.
In fact, the music of the game has become a focus point for many fans, especially those who knew enough French to find the foreshadowing in lyrics as they worked through the story. Now, gamers can purchase that soundtrack in physical form in two different formats.

Games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 are often shaped by their music. These soundtracks become the pulse of gameplay, and few are as cinematic or emotionally charged as what is found in Clair Obscur.
In recent years, open-world games and MMO-style gameplay have removed some of the need for soundtracks that tell a story. Because of this, the titles that manage to hammer a story home with the music that follows the player have become more treasured.
This makes collections like the CD and Vinyl sets for Clair Obscur highly desired. Especially as they aren’t typically available for long periods of time. These limited releases become special elements to gamer collections and offer a tangible element of a game that has left a serious impact on its players.
The composer being Clair Obscur‘s soundtrack left a comment on the official webpage, stating, “Thank you, Expeditioners, for listening and for the unique bond that video game music creates between us. This project has been an incredible journey, spanning years of work and dedication. I’ve had the chance to collaborate with amazing people and friends.
I don’t yet know how the music will resonate with players, but what I do know is that I loved every second of creating it. I gave everything—I have no regrets. I poured my heart and soul into it, and I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve created.
It has been a part of my life for so long, and it’s hard to express how much it means to finally share this music with you.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart—for listening, for embracing the game and its music, for making it part of your own journey. I can’t wait for you to experience it.”
The words from Lorien perfectly convey the magic behind the compositions and add even more excitement to each pre-order by players. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was a magical, destructive, soul-grabbing experience, and the music enchanted every player as they worked through each challenge.
