Clair Obscur Expedition 33’s latest title update is now live on all platforms and comes with some significant improvements. Update 1.4.0 is primarily meant to add new accessibility and UI features to the game. Furthermore, the update also squashes some of the skill-related exploits that were leftovers from the previous update and hotfix. In addition to that, the 1.4.0 update adds frame generation to the game, albeit with some caveats.

Essentially, Clair Obscur Expedition 33 currently only supports DLSS and XeSS frame generation. Additionally, a new Low Latency mode is also added to the game, which is enabled automatically alongside frame generation.

Lastly, as per usual, the update also comes with stability and performance improvements across PC and consoles. Here’s a look at the official patch notes for Clair Obscur Expedition 33 update 1.4.0.
