Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was already the most-award Game of the Year of all time, and it's still extending its lead over Elden Ring and every other game in history with another big night at the annual DICE Awards (Design Innovate Communicate Entertain).

The French RPG previously snagged the record for most GOTY wins right out of Elden Ring's hands last month, if you count all honors given by award shows, such as The Game Awards and The Golden Joysticks, and the media, including magazines, radios, and websites (like this one here.) At the time, Expedition 33 had 436 GOTY trophies while Elden Ring came in second with 429 recorded wins.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 fan says their merch has been detained by government officials who think it's "possibly" a relic: "Customs opened the package and decided the art book looked a bit too ancient"
