This upcoming week, there’s a fantastic lineup of new Xbox game releases, but the star of the show is undoubtedly "South of Midnight" from Compulsion Games.
Fans might have already experienced the Premium Edition back in early April, but now everyone can dive into the Standard Edition, which hits the virtual shelves on April 8. As a first-party Xbox title, it’s making its debut on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass, allowing even more players to explore its compelling world.
In my review of "South of Midnight," I mentioned how the narrative of a young Weaver on a quest to save her mother captivated me. I genuinely hope we continue to see more adventures with Hazel. The game beautifully captures the essence of Southern Gothic and the American South, leaving players with meaningful reflections.
