Fans of stop-motion animation are in for a treat, so let’s see the release date, pricing, platforms, editions, and PC system requirements for South of Midnight.
South of Midnight is an upcoming action-adventure game, made by Compulsion Games (We Happy Few, Contrast) and published by Xbox Game Studios. The theme is the fictionalized version of the Deep South, and it follows a girl protagonist named Hazel, who must become a Weaver, a magical “healer” of sorts, in order to save her family and protect her hometown from all sorts of mystical creatures. And the best part: all cutscenes are made using stop-motion. Nothing groundbreaking, but still a very cool detail. Combine that with the rich culture of the American South and we’re looking at a very promising title
