Last week, the gaming landscape on Steam witnessed a dynamic shift as the critically acclaimed role-playing game Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 climbed to the second highest grossing title, moving up from its initial debut at third place. This upward trajectory can be attributed to the growing buzz surrounding the game across social media platforms and within the gaming community.
