Clair Obscur Becomes GOTY Favourite After GTA VI Delay

In a major shake-up to the Game of the Year race, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has moved into 10/11 favourite status at The Game Awards 2025, following the official delay of GTA VI until May 2026.

Rockstar’s much-anticipated title had been a heavy early market leader, but the shift to next year has blown the field wide open, with a mix of ambitious new IPs and returning fan-favourites now fighting for the crown.

Paddy Power's latest betting market gives an implied probability of 52.4% that Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 wins the 2025 Game of the Year award.

This dramatic odds shift has left a dynamic field of challengers, with Death Stranding 2 and Split Fiction gaining momentum heading into the summer.

What the expert says...
Clair Obscur has moved to odds-on status after Rockstar’s GTA delay shook up the market. It now has a clear path to GOTY but Death Stranding 2 is a big-name threat.
