Compulsion Games Reveals South of Midnight

Compulsion Games, makers of We Happy Few and Contrast, has announced a fascinating new project called South of Midnight. The stylish trailer begins with a strange musician strumming his guitar surrounded by forest critters in a bayou-like swamp. A young woman pays a visit to inquire about a dangerous monster, which attempts to ambush her until she retaliates by weaving a seemingly magical web to subdue it. There's no gameplay, and the trailer's description describes South of Midnight as a "fantastical and macabre third-person action-adventure set in the American Deep South." South of Midnight has no release window but it’s coming to Xbox consoles and will launch on Game Pass.
