"Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a certified hit, officially selling more than one million copies," Rhys Elliott, head of market analysis at Alinea Analytics, tells GamesIndustry.biz. "The announcement didn't say players reached – it said copies sold. That was a choice, and I applaud the transparency."

The PlayStation Store allows those with a PlayStation Network account to rate the games listed on the digital storefront. The highest user-rated original IP on that store has recently changed, as the critically acclaimed Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 now takes that top spot.

Expedition 33 developer Sandfall Interactive must be used to compliments by now — its RPG released a little over a week ago and is already universally acclaimed by players and critics alike — but I don't think anyone had "a hat tip from French President Emmanuel Macron" on their bingo card this week.
