Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Xbox Series X Reddit Giveaway
Fan responses should be posted in the comment section of the official giveaway thread on the r/Xbox subreddit. Only one submission is allowed per user, with duplicate entries resulting in an immediate disqualification. Another requirement to keep in mind is that only entries from Reddit accounts that have a minimum of 50 total karma and are at least two months old will be accepted. This particular limitation was ostensibly imposed to prevent people from cheating by creating multiple accounts to enroll and improve their chances of winning. The winner will be decided using RedditRaffler.com onthe day ofClair Obscur: Expedition 33’s release, April 24.
Regarding regional eligibility, the giveaway is open to North America, South America, Australia, and Europe. However, the console itself is a U.S. build that comes with a stateside-only warranty. Like every other Xbox Series X model, this one-of-a-kindClair Obscur-themed console is region-free and can hence play physical games bought anywhere in the world. The device comes with a custom wireless controller styled after Sandfall Interactive’s upcoming RPG.
The main and only reward of the ongoing giveaway also includes a digital download code for theDeluxe Edition ofClair Obscur: Expeditions 33. Aside from the game itself, the higher-tier edition includes custom outfits for Maelle and Gustave, as well as half a dozen outfits from the so-called “Flowers” Collection—one for each playable character. In the case of an ineligible winner, Microsoft will hold a second draw, which will also be verifiable via RedditRaffler.com.
