Players will pass through the Ancient Sanctuary on their way to the Gestral Village in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. This map is home to numerous Pictos, weapons, and beyond, and some players will undoubtedly want to find them all. This guide is written with those players in mind, and it details how to find every item on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's Ancient Santuary map.
Players will be able to freely return to this map in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 during much of their time with the game, and it is certainly not imperative that they find every item during their first visit.
