Daredevil And Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Star Charlie Cox Admits It's Probably Time To Buy a Games Console

We already knew that Daredevil star Charlie Cox feels like a "total fraud" anytime someone gushes to him about one of this year's biggest games, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, but now the voice of Gustave is determined: "I wanna play the game." Cox, who plays party member Gustave, is among Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s star-studded cast, which also includes Jennifer English as Maelle, Ben Starr as Verso, and Andy Serkis as Renoir. But as his actual work on the game only amounted to a single four-hour recording session, Cox admits he didn't really know what he was getting into, saying games have "come a long way" since the last time he played, and yet he still doesn't own the game, let alone a console to play it on. "I remember being in the studio and thinking, 'This is beautiful, the visuals are extraordinary,'" Cox said in a Q&A during GalaxyCon (thanks, GamesRadar+). "They've come a long way since Mario 64, which is probably the last computer game I played." "I wanna play the game I need to play the game. I need to get a console first. I feel like a fraud because I just did the voice. But it's so cool, I'm so happy for these guys. They're not like, a big company that makes a ton of games. And I hear it's a frontrunner to win game of the year, it's really cool." In IGN's 9/10 review of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, we described it as a "modern RPG classic," adding: "In so many ways, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 reminded me of numerous classic and contemporary RPGs I love, but developer Sandfall truly understood why those games are special and made the pieces it borrowed its own."

The cast of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 stopped by IGN Live last month to not only discuss the beloved new game, but also to exclusively premiere an over 10-minute look at the game's making-of documentary. It comes after the team was congratulated for their success by the French President Emmanuel Macron himself.
