Clair Obscur Expedition 33's director heaps praise on Persona 5's style

Sandfall Interactive’s Clair Obscur Expedition 33 is no doubt a love letter to JRPGs. You’ll find the DNA of genre classics like Final Fantasy, Suikoden, and Lost Odyssey all throughout the French studio’s work, and that’s by design. E33 is begging you to make connections to the games it’s built on top of, and from my time with it, this only enhances the overall experience. When Expedition 33 first came out, there were a lot of comparisons to Atlus’s own landmark RPG series, and now Sandfall’s creative director Guillaume Broche acknowledges how much of an impact it had on development. In fact, Broche thinks Persona 5 might just be the best game ever made when it comes to style.
