Compulsion Games’ South of Midnight leans into Southern folklore

And it looks intruiging.

Compulsion Games’ next title is South of Midnight, a third-person action-adventure game that leans heavily into Southern folklore.

“As Hazel, you will explore the mythos and encounter creatures of Southern folklore in a macabre and fantastical world,” Microsoft said of the latest from the We Happy Few developer.

“When disaster strikes her hometown, Hazel is called to become a Weaver: a magical mender of broken bonds and spirits,” Microsoft continued.

“Imbued with these new abilities, Hazel will confront and subdue dangerous creatures, untangle the webs of her own family’s shared past and – if she’s lucky – find her way to a place that feels like home.”

There’s no word yet on when we should expect South of Midnight, but it’s planned for Windows PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store alongside Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X.
