Xbox Game Pass reveals its biggest third party title of 2025
Expedition 33 is the biggest third-party game launch on Xbox Game Pass in 2025, surpassing all other titles in its first 30 days.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Wasn't Just An Enormous Sales Success, It Was Also The Biggest New Third-Party Launch on Xbox Game Pass in 2025, Despite Launching Two Days After The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 creative director Guillaume Broche says Xbox Game Pass "lowered that barrier of entry" for his beloved turn-based RPG, which sits in a genre that "might put people who prefer more real-time action games off."
The best RPG of 2025, and potentially one of the best RPGs of all time, is actively available to play on Xbox Game Pass.
That game is of course Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, which has been crowned today as the biggest third-party Xbox Game Pass launch of 2025. In a post over on Xbox Wire, it's mentioned that this is based on "the number of unique users in the first 30 days of its availability". Here's a bit more about the accomplishment:
