Alright, adventurer! Looks like you’re hot on the trail of the latest intel for *Clair Obscur: Expedition 33*. And what an update it is!

Following its monumental win of nine awards at The Game Awards 2025, including the coveted Game of the Year, developer Sandfall Interactive has released a substantial and free “Thank You” update for *Clair Obscur: Expedition 33* (Patch 1.5.0). This update is available across PS5, Xbox, and PC.

Here’s a breakdown of the epic new content and improvements you can dive into:

**New Playable Environment: Verso’s Drafts**
The highlight of this update is “Verso’s Drafts,” a brand-new playable area that offers a whimsical, storybook-like adventure inspired by a young Verso’s childhood. This environment introduces fresh enemy encounters, hidden surprises, and new music tracks by award-winning composer Lorien Testard. You can access Verso’s Drafts from Act III on the World Map, next to Lumière, but you’ll need Esquie’s Underwater ability to get there.

**Challenging Late-Game Bosses**
For seasoned Expeditioners seeking a true test of skill, the Endless Tower has been updated with new late-game boss variants. These are based on iconic main-game encounters but are designed to be even more challenging, offering powerful new Pictos, costumes, and gear as rewards.

The update brings new costumes for all Expedition members, providing more customization options. Additionally, new Luminas and weapons have been added to discover and utilize.
