This week marks an exciting time for Xbox enthusiasts with a slew of new games hitting the shelves, and the undeniable star among them is Compulsion Games’ latest release, South of Midnight.
While eager gamers could get their hands on the Premium Edition since April 3, the much-anticipated Standard Edition is set to launch on April 8. This title, being a first-party Xbox game, will be available right from the get-go on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass.
In case you’re out of the loop, I had the chance to play South of Midnight and shared my thoughts in a recent review. I found myself captivated by the tale of a passionate Weaver on a quest to rescue her mother. The game is a heartfelt tribute to Southern Gothic culture, and I’m hopeful that more stories featuring Hazel are in the pipeline. It’s a journey filled with deep meaning, and I recommend everyone experience it.
