If you’re getting Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 vibes from the new trailer for Sword and Fairy 4: Remake, you’re not alone. Some are pointing to the upcoming RPG as evidence that we’re about to get lot of copycats trying to ape the 2025 Game of the Year’s aura, similar to the wave of open-world games that borrowed elements from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild after that game’s incredible success. But Sword and Fairy 4: Remake didn’t spring up out of nowhere, and the series it’s a part of has a long history of its own.
