Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Revealed: Players Find One-Punch Man Reference in Game Code

Players are gradually beginning to decipher the various layers of references hidden within the game.

Recently, a dedicated Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 fan going by the handle Responsible-Race-575 shared a fascinating discovery. While inspecting the game’s code, they stumbled upon several intriguing internal assets.

Given that the title is deeply steeped in French culture, many of its nuances might fly over the heads of international players. As it turns out, the developers at Sandfall Interactive left helpful explanatory links directly within the source code to provide context.

The names of certain characters and NPCs serve as nods to pop culture, linguistic wordplay, and historical elements.

For instance, the entry for an NPC named “GestralOnePuncho” contains a reference link to the Wikipedia article for the popular series One-Punch Man.

Additional explanations have surfaced as well. For example, “Troubadour” points toward medieval lyric poets and musicians, while “Barbasucette” is a clever portmanteau of the French words *barbe* (beard) and *sucette* (lollipop).
