Daredevil Star Charlie Cox Says He Feels Like ‘A Total Fraud’ Whenever Someone Congratulates Him for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s Success: ‘I Was in a Studio for Four Hours, Maybe’

Charlie Cox’s name and voiceover work are attached to one of the front-runners for 2025 game of the year, but that hasn’t stopped the Daredevil star from feeling like “a total fraud” whenever he receives congratulations for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s success.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the debut title from French studio Sandfall Interactive, and it has outperformed all expectations. It sold an appropriate 3.3 million copies in 33 days, which is a wonderful return for a game everyone thought was going to get crushed by The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.

Cox, who plays party member Gustave, is among Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s star-studded cast, which also includes Jennifer English as Maelle, Ben Starr as Verso, and Andy Serkis as Renoir. But his actual work on the game only amounted to a single four-hour recording session, he admitted at 2025 Washington State Summer Con over the weekend.

As captured by the @charliefansite X / Twitter fansite in a post spotted by GamesRadar, Cox revealed that while he is delighted for Sandfall, he can’t take any credit for the game’s success.

“I don’t mean to minimize it in any way, and apparently the game is awesome,” he began. “I’m not a gamer, I have no idea, I haven’t played it. My agent asked me if I wanted to go and do a voiceover. I was in a studio for four hours, maybe. People keep saying how amazing it is and congratulations, and I feel like a total fraud. But I’m so thrilled for the company and that it did really well.”
