Two huge video game music tours have been confirmed for 2027 but fans are frustrated at the limited stops on the global runs.
Earlier this week, Nintendo announced that it would be celebrating 40 years of The Legend Of Zelda with an anniversary concert series. The same day, a second leg of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s ‘A Painted Symphony’ orchestral tour was confirmed, including a record-breaking gig at London’s O2 Arena.
However some fans aren’t happy at which countries have been excluded from the current tour schedule. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s A Painted Symphony will play 11 shows in France and a further nine across Europe. However just four gigs have been announced in North America – two in New York and two in Los Angeles – and nothing has been announced anywhere else.
Meanwhile ‘The Legend Of Zelda 40th Anniversary’ concert tour will kick-off with six shows in Japan before visiting four cities in the USA, two cities in Australia and three cities in the UK, with just one stop on mainland Europe.
Only ONE location in the east coast and it's in…Virginia?! https://t.co/4nItryotxH

“Fuck, I didn’t realise the world only consisted of the USA and Europe,” said one frustrated Clair Obscur fan on Reddit. “More locations please. I got so excited just to get so sad,” added another. “World tour = one date in the UK and it’s always flipping London,” wrote a third.
“‘North America’ and not a single Canadian city/province. So tired of this,” wrote an annoyed Zelda fan. “So sad… only UK and Sweden in the European leg,” said another. “This is really stupid touring,” added a third.
