If you haven't played it yet, you're in for a real treat. There are many reasons why Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a frontrunner for numerous categories at The Game Awards 2025, including being nominated for Game of the Year.

I won't be the one to spoil it for you, but quite a bit is hidden away in the story, and even if you're not normally a fan of role-playing games, this is an experience that is well worth checking out. I've particularly fallen in love with the incredible soundtrack, so much so that I've ordered it on vinyl.

Take advantage of this offer during Black Friday and save some money that you can put toward other games!
