Remove 30 FPS Cap in Clair Obscur Expeditions 33 Cutscenes on PC: A Step-by-Step Guide

Unlocking the Frame Rate in Clair Obscur: Expeditions 33

Clair Obscur: Expeditions 33 is already gaining acclaim as one of the top titles of 2025, offering players an immersive RPG experience enhanced by remarkable graphics and exceptional character designs. Although the game performs well across various platforms, its graphical prowess is particularly evident on PC. However, players have noted a limitation: cutscenes are locked at 30 FPS, which can detract from the overall experience, especially for those with high-refresh-rate monitors.

This frame rate restriction may be frustrating for many gamers, but it is not a persistent issue. The PC modding community, led by modder Lyall, has stepped in to address this concern. A new patch has been released that effectively removes the 30 FPS cap during cutscenes in Clair Obscur: Expeditions 33.

How to Remove the 30 FPS Limit in Cutscenes

The ClairObscurFix developed by Lyall offers multiple enhancements, with the primary function being the elimination of the 30 FPS cap during cutscenes. Here’s how to install this valuable patch:

I personally tested the ClairObscurFix and can confirm that it successfully lifts the 30 FPS limitation from the cutscenes, significantly enhancing the visual fidelity of the game.

Beyond removing the frame rate cap, the ClairObscurFix includes additional features:

Developer Console Activation: Allows players to access a developer console for advanced modifications.
Improved Ultrawide FOV: The patch resolves field of view issues that can occur after battles when playing at ultrawide resolutions, ensuring an effectively zoomed-out perspective throughout gameplay.

All fixes are enabled automatically once the patch is applied, making it an easy solution for enhancing gameplay.

Thanks to Lyall for their dedication to this patch’s development and testing. It’s advisable to monitor the releases section for any future updates, as Lyall frequently enhances the patches with new features and fixes.
