Upcoming Xbox RPG Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the latest video game revealed to be getting a film adaptation, with plans in the works already despite the game not having even released yet.
This comes by way of a Variety report, which says that developer Sandfall Interactive has partnered with Story Kitchen for the film version, and Kepler Interactive will publish. Sandfall and Story Kitchen confirmed the adaptation to the publication, and Story Kitchen founders Dmitri M. Johnson and Mike Goldberg, along with Timothy I. Stevenson and Elena Sandoval will produce. No other details about the film such as casting or a release window were offered.
It’s hard to imagine a Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 film simply because the work it’s based on isn’t even out yet. We learned last week in an Xbox Developer Direct that the RPG is planned for release on Xbox and PC on April 24 of this year.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is inspired by Belle Époque France and follows a group of expeditioners traveling together to stop a mysterious Paintress, a deity who every year curses everyone of a certain age and older to vanish. We recently saw new gameplay, featuring the battle system, skill trees, an overworld, and some of the game’s painterly environments.
