Playing games and watching their cutscenes play at an unlocked framerate is an experience that you can’t go back from. However, for some reason, cutscenes in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 are locked at 30 FPS, while the game can be played at an unlocked framerate. This can be easily fixed, and here I will help you remove the 30 FPS limit in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.
Quick Fix to Remove 30 FPS Cap in Expedition 33’s Cutscenes
Running on Unreal Engine 5, the game looks beautiful and runs smoothly on PC and consoles. However, even the most polished games can experience errors and issues, and Expedition 33 is no exception. Aside from the cutscenes being locked at 30 FPS, PC users are also experiencing Fatal error crashes and random gameplay crashes.
The 30 FPS limit for cutscenes in Expedition 33 is quite unusual and breaks immersion. This is especially distracting for PC users with high refresh rate monitors. However, this framerate lock on the cutscenes can easily be removed, and here is how:
- Go to this ClairObscurFix nexusmod Page.
- If you own Expedition 33 on Steam or Epic, download the “ClairObscurFix (Steam and Epic)” version.
- If you own the game on the Xbox app or Microsoft Store, download the “ClairObscurFix (Xbox)” version.
- Once downloaded, copy the contents of the zip file and paste them into the game folder.
- Play the game, and the cutscenes will be unlocked.

Steam: Right-click Expedition 33 > Manage > Browse local files.
