Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 composer Lorien Testard has confirmed plans for an orchestral concert tour.
Earlier this year, the Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 soundtrack topped the Billboard Classic Album Chart, a vinyl boxset was confirmed while a live performance of ‘Alicia’ from the Gamescom Opening Night Live showcase went viral.
Now composer Lorian Testard has confirmed a concert tour is in the works.
A statement from live entertainment production company Bleu Citron Tournées read: “Following the release of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and its original soundtrack, we are incredibly excited to announce a unique co-production for the launch of the official French concert series!”
The French gigs will be produced by Bleu Citron Tournées in collaboration with game developers Sandfall Interactive. Both Testard and vocalist Alice Duport-Percier will be involved in the gigs, as will the Curieux Orchestra.
“We are so honoured to be able to bring you our plans for the official regional concerts in France soon, with the potential to explore international dates in 2026,” they added.
Dates and ticket details will be revealed in the near future.
Speaking about creating the soundtrack, Testard told Gamesradar+ that he “tried not to listen to other soundtracks while working on Clair Obscur.”
“But I’ve loved video game music and listened to a lot of it when I was younger – Zelda, Xenoblade, Nier, and Joe Hisaishi (Studio Ghibli) along with all the French music I’ve grown up with,” he continued. “That music has been part of my life for years, so it’s shaped the way I hear and write music.”
It’s also been confirmed that a Clair Obscur: Expedition movie adaptation is in the works.
Last week, Clair Obscur developers teased a sequel as well as an expansion. Creator Guillaume Broche revealed that Clair Obscur is the “franchise name,” and Expedition 33 is just “one of the stories that we want to tell in this franchise.”
“Exactly what [the sequel] will look like and what the concept will be is still too soon to announce, but what is sure is that this is not the end of the Clair Obscur franchise,” he added.
In other news, the rumoured Call Of Duty live-action film adaptation has finally been confirmed and will reportedly be inspired by Top Gun: Maverick.
