Clair Obscur’s new DLC is making gamers sweat with how tough the brand new bosses are

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s free DLC launched on the conclusion of the 2025 The Recreation Awards on Dec. 11, and gamers have been reckoning with its excessive problem curve since. The free “Thanks Replace” provides a photograph mode, broader localizations, and a brand new space, Verso’s Drafts. It additionally contains a few of the most tough bosses within the recreation but.

Along with Verso’s Drafts, which incorporates its personal tough spoiler-y closing boss, the DLC added extra fights to the Countless Tower, and that is the place gamers are actually beating their heads towards the wall in frustration (or, ought to I say, towards the canvas). Gamers have taken to Reddit to languish with the neighborhood over how tough they’re.

“Duolliste had me screaming,” one participant commented in a put up about how the Duollistes has a difficult second part. “Countless Tower DLC is killing me,” reads the title of one other put up. The brand new bosses compelled one participant right into a little bit of self-reflection: “I’ve come to phrases with the actual fact I’m too informal of a gamer to ever beat the brand new Countless Tower bosses.” Expedition 33 gamers can all the time decrease the issue (and may thank star Jennifer English for that) if the challenges show too nice.

These Countless Tower bosses have sparked dialogue in regards to the recreation’s problem and balancing, with one put up lamenting what a participant perceives because the Countless Tower’s “pure synthetic problem.” With out spoiling an excessive amount of, the Countless Tower additions take the bottom recreation’s most tough Act 3 bosses (together with you realize who) and ramps up their combo lengths and harm output. Ultimately, nonetheless, these bosses are supposed to be ridiculously difficult endgame additions, and so they appear to be they’re serving that function.

Nonetheless, that is to say nothing of the DLC’s biggest problem: one other Gestral Seashore. Godspeed, everybody.
