Is Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 coming to Switch 2?
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has garnered significant attention from both critics and players since its release, and now all eyes are on whether the game will come to Nintendo’s next-generation console, the Switch 2. Following Sandfall Interactive’s earlier statement that they were exploring this possibility, a new claim from within the industry suggests that the game’s journey to the Switch 2 may be closer than we thought.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 May Be on the Way to Switch 2
Nate the Hate, known for his leaks in the gaming world, specifically highlighted Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 in a podcast where he shared his 2026 predictions. According to Nate, the Switch 2 will host many more third-party games throughout 2026, and Expedition 33 will be among them. This statement gives the impression of being based on more concrete information than a classic prediction.
Sandfall Interactive has previously stated that they are working on compatibility for the Switch 2 with Expedition 33. The fact that the new generation Switch aims to be a more powerful platform for third-party games makes a port of such a technically and visually ambitious RPG to the console more likely. For Nintendo, such prestigious titles are seen as important moves to strengthen the Switch 2’s library.
There has been no official announcement from Sandfall Interactive or Nintendo yet. Therefore, it’s impossible to say for sure that a Switch 2 version of Expedition 33 will be released. However, considering the game’s great success and large player base, it seems quite logical that the developer would want to bring this interest to a new platform.
If the claims are true, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 could be one of the most noteworthy third-party titles to come to the Switch 2. This could both boost the game’s sales momentum and be an important step in strengthening the Switch 2’s image as a “Nintendo console capable of playing current big games.”
