Sandfall Interactive has made headlines as the Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 soundtrack claims the top spot on Billboard charts shortly after release.
While players embrace this breakout turn-based RPG, the game's soundtrack has emerged as a standout feature, earning widespread acclaim across social media and now dominating Billboard rankings.
The OST currently leads both the Classical Albums and Classical Crossover Albums charts, while also securing positions at #13 on the Official Soundtrack Album chart and #31 on the Official Album Download chart – proving the music resonates as deeply as the game's narrative and mechanics.
Featuring over 150 compositions, many tracks from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 have surpassed hundreds of thousands of streams on Spotify, with the orchestral masterpiece "Lumière" approaching 2 million plays across both YouTube and Spotify.
This remarkable musical achievement becomes even more impressive when considering composer Lorien Testard's origins – discovered through SoundCloud as revealed in Sandfall's BBC interview.
Since its April 24, 2025 launch across PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Game Pass, the game has surpassed 2 million sales while garnering unexpected recognition, including congratulations from French President Emmanuel Macron.
