Clair Obscu: Expedition 33 took everyone by surprise, being for many the best game this year. The game’s success is also surprising, which has opened the opportunity for creators to meet big names in the industry.

Clair Obsucu’s creators are taking a trip to Japan, where they took the opportunity to visit Square Enix’s studio. In a post on social networks, Naoki Hamaguchi, director of the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy, said they spent the day talking and “Exchanging ideas”.

Guillaume Broche, Francois Meurisse, Tom Guillermin from Sandfall, and Alexis Garavaryan from Kepler—creators of EXPEDITION 33—visited the Square Enix office for a creatively rich exchange of visions and ideas.

“Guillaume Brooche, François Measse, Tom Guillermin da Sandfall, and Alexis Garavaryan of Kepler – Expedition 33 creators – visited Square Enix’s office for a creative exchange of visions and ideas.”

Although it may have been just a casual conversation, the players were excited about the meaning of this exchange of ideas. Since the release of Clair Obscur, many fans on social networks have been asking the return of the Final Fantasy franchise to the old shift style. However, director Naoki “Yoshi-P” Yoshida has already stated that Square does not impose a style of combating creators, depending on the director of each project deciding the course.

The visit of the creators of Clair I obscute to Japan also led to know other studios. Earlier today, developer Hideo Kojima posted a meeting with the developers at Kojima Productions, and even received copies of the autographed game.
