Southern: Last News

Vengeful spirits, grief-stricken souls and a massively ravenous gator lie in wait for saving in Compulsion Games’ upcoming mythical adventure game South of Midnight. Originally announced in a teaser trailer in 2023 during the Xbox Games Showcase, and with a full gameplay trailer follow-up earlier this past summer, the scope of what the game has in store for players has been relatively under wraps. However, we do know so far that South of Midnight is a third-person action-adventure inspired by folktales of the Southern Gothic. The story follows a young woman named Hazel (voiced by Adriyan Rae, who also shared motion capture duties with Nona Parker), reeling after a hurricane devastates her hometown as she journeys to find her mother, who went missing during the flood. Somehow, pulled into a magical realist reality where folklore creatures emerge, Hazel embraces her powers as a Weaver—a magical mender of broken spirits—to confront formidable creatures known as Haints as she untangles the past of her family and those around her.
