Hot off the heels of a rather packed Xbox Showcase, Compulsion Games have revealed the first-ever gameplay of their next game, South of Midnight.
The team who brought us Contrast, and We Happy Few have gone to great lengths to give us something different to what they’ve ever done before.
South of Midnight is an action-adventure game that follows Hazel, who is pulled into a Southern Gothic world following a hurricane in her hometown of Prospero.
Here, she discovers that fantasy and reality are interwoven as ancient creatures from folklore emerge and make themselves known to Hazel. In the newest trailer, she speaks to a catfish before jumping into action-packed gameplay.
It’s not the strongest-looking action, but it does look unique enough for me to give it a look.
You can check out the trailer for it here:
South of Midnight is out on Xbox Series X|S and PC in 2025. It’s also launching on Game Pass.
