Sandfall Interactive has just released Title Update 1.2.3 for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and shared its full patch notes. So, let’s see what this new update brings to the table.

Patch 1.2.3 fixes an issue that could cause mouse buttons to become unresponsive after first use. It also resolves an issue that could cause mouse input to get lost after the first Jump counter attack if it is pressed only once. These are very important fixes as the game relies heavily on dodging and parrying attacks. As such, it will now be more enjoyable with the KB&M.

Moreover, Update 1.2.3 fixes areas of the world map where players could get stuck. It also unlocks the cut-scenes, which will no longer be in 32:9 aspect ratio. However, it will not unlock the framerate of the cut-scenes. Thus, you’ll still have to use the ClairObscurFix Mod.

Sadly, this update does not add support for DLSS 4 Frame Generation. Right now, there is only one mod that enables DLSS 4 Frame Gen. The bad news is that this mod is behind a Patreon wall. So, let’s hope that the devs will add official support for it via the next patch.

There is also no mention of any fixes for the blurry image when using DLAA. Plus, this patch will not reduce the game’s traversal stutters in any way. Thankfully, there aren’t a lot of them throughout the entire game.

Like always, Steam will download this update the next time you launch its client. You can also find below its full patch notes.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
