"Get to Know South of Midnight: Xbox's New Exclusive Game from We Happy Few Developer"

South of Midnight is a magical realist occult adventure game from Compulsion Games, the makers of We Happy Few, that explores the folklore, music, and rural environments of a fictionalized South. The game follows protagonist Hazel, a Weaver who can use magic for combat and traversal, on a quest to repair a broken world by taking on mythical creatures drawn from Southern folklore. The game is set to release on Windows PC and Xbox Series X, Game Pass, and Steam, but no release date has been announced yet. The game's setting and lead character are underrepresented in gaming, and Compulsion Games has sought outside help to ensure sensitive handling of the subject matter.
