The Monolith | Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 | Walkthrough, Gameplay, No Commentary, 4K

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 transports players to a world steeped in Belle Époque elegance and a chilling annual curse. Each year, a spectral entity known as the Paintress emerges to mark a number upon her enigmatic Monolith. Those of that age are then tragically consumed by smoke in an event called the "Gommage," a horrifying countdown that brings humanity closer to annihilation with each passing year. The game follows Expedition 33, a desperate cohort from the isolated island of Lumière, tasked with a seemingly impossible mission: to find and destroy the Paintress, thereby breaking the cycle of despair before the number 33 is inscribed. Players lead this brave party, tracing the somber paths of their predecessors and unraveling the mysteries of their fates. The Monolith itself is the apex of this perilous journey. Appearing on the northern edge of the Continent concurrently with the cataclysmic Fracture, an event that ripped Lumière from the mainland, this colossal structure initially bore the number "100." It is within this imposing edifice that the Paintress resides, initiating the annual Gommage. A formidable barrier of dense chroma has historically protected the Monolith, thwarting numerous previous expeditions. Expedition 33's success hinges on their invention of a Barrier Breaker, enabling them to finally breach this protective shield. The ascent into the Monolith is a descent into surreal horror. The interior is a gauntlet of "Tainted" zones, dark and distorted reflections of previously explored locales. These twisted environments serve as a testament to the game's challenges, populated by familiar foes now imbued with greater power. The expedition navigates through areas like the Tainted Meadows and the disturbing Tainted Lumiere, facing enhanced enemies and formidable boss rematches. The climb culminates not in an immediate confrontation with the Paintress, but with a difficult rematch against Renoir, who is ultimately empowered by a mysterious dark creature. Following Renoir's defeat, the party can finally face the Paintress, a multi-phase battle that tests their mettle and unlocks the true potential of their characters, ultimately leading to the cessation of the Gommage and a hard-won victory.
