RPGFan Names Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Best Combat and Renoir Best Antagonist in 2025 Game of the Year Awards

RPGFan has announced two of its Games of the Year 2025 category winners, with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 taking home Best Combat and its villain Renoir earning Best Antagonist. The combat win was credited to the game's ability to borrow and synthesize appealing mechanics from multiple sources into a compelling whole. Renoir's win was praised with enough enthusiasm that one staff writer preemptively told his wife 'Renoir was right' before she began the game.
