Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Releasing The Same Week as Oblivion Remastered Shadow Drops

Kepler Interactive Compares It To Barbenheimer

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been building momentum towards its eagerly awaited launch when Bethesda unexpectedly shadow dropped the highly anticipated The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered. The game's publisher, Kepler Interactive, lightheartedly addressed the situation on their official Twitter (X) account on April 22, drawing a parallel to the Barbenheimer phenomenon.

For those who recall, Barbenheimer refers to the cultural event where two contrasting films, Barbie and Oppenheimer, premiered on the same day in July 2023. The stark contrast between Barbie's vibrant, pink-themed world and Oppenheimer's somber, intense narrative sparked a meme trend where fans would attend back-to-back screenings, switching outfits from bright pinks to muted grays. Kepler Interactive cleverly likened this to the simultaneous release of Expedition 33 and Oblivion Remastered, highlighting the unique juxtaposition of their games.

Despite the surprise launch of Oblivion Remastered, fans are eager to see how Expedition 33 will fare. While many developers might shift release dates to avoid competition, Expedition 33 is set to proceed with its planned launch, showcasing confidence in its appeal.

Releasing On All Platforms At The Same Time Worldwide
