Well, certainly no one expected it, but even the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, commented on the success of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 will definitely be remembered as a game that had the strongest impact in the shortest amount of time. Soon after the release, the game was hailed as one of the best in recent gaming history, which left the developers, Sandfall Interactive, speechless. Fans even noted that it is the highest-rated original game in the PS Store of all time. Even the futile attempts of review bombing by haters failed to make a dent in the game’s reputation. And now, as a cherry on top, even the President of France sends his regards.

Just when you think that the hype around Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 can’t get any crazier, this little piece of social media interaction came to our attention. Originally shared by Guillaume Huin on his X profile, it looks like the President of France himself had something to say about Clair Obscur.

Clair Obscure’s Instagram profile shared a post saying it has been a week since the release of the game. “What a pleasure it’s been to see players from all over the world experiencing the game. We hope you’ve enjoyed spotting the nods to our home country throughout.” And on that post, Emmanuel Macron commented:

“One million copies sold, and one of the best rated game in history: and yes, it is French! Congrats to Sandfall Interactive and the creators of Expedition 33. You make France’s creativity and audacity shine across the world.”

He ever reshared on his Instagram profile (as a Story, possibly expired by now):

Naturally, the fans went crazy, especially about the fact that the devs responded with a baguette. “The president of France Emmanuel Macron commenting on Instagram about Clair Obscur Expedition 33 was not on my bingo card,” said Guillaume Huin on his original post. This game will certainly be included in the annals of gaming history after this. Hat off to the devs for everything!
