Bug Fixes and Localization Improvements
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has just released its first update post-launch. Sandfall Interactive shared the news via a Steam blog post on April 30, announcing that Hotfix 1.2.2 is now live. This update focuses on crucial bug fixes and enhancements to localization.
The patch addresses in-game issues, such as soft-locks when stunning the Grown Bourgeon and other soft-lock problems on the world map. Additionally, the update includes adjustments to the French, German, and Chinese language options to improve the gaming experience for players worldwide.
Sandfall Interactive is committed to ongoing improvements and has promised more updates soon.

Expedition 33 Director Recommends Another RPG Which Was Released on the Same Day
In an exciting twist, Sandfall Games' Creative Director Guillaume Broche took to Expedition 33's Twitter (X) account on April 30 to recommend another RPG that launched on the same day. Broche encouraged fans to check out "The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy," describing it as a "great turn-based RPG made with love by an awesome team."
This shout-out came in response to The Hundred Line's co-director Kazutaka Kodaka's earlier tweet on April 28, where he praised Expedition 33 and encouraged players to try both titles. Kodaka's series of tweets lauded Expedition 33, creating a mutual admiration between the two RPG communities.
Despite the competitive release window alongside other RPGs like Expedition 33 and Oblivion Remastered, The Hundred Line has received a warm welcome from fans, boasting "Very Positive" reviews on Steam. Meanwhile, Expedition 33 continues to dominate, holding the title of the highest-rated game of 2025 and surpassing 1 million sales in just three days.
