South of Midnight Releases on PlayStation 5: Launch Trailer
Hazel's adventure returns to the deep American South
Xbox Game Studios and developer Compulsion Games announce the release of South of Midnight on PlayStation 5. Originally launched in April 2025 on Xbox Series X|S and PC, this title is an action/adventure that follows the story of Hazel, a young woman who ventures into the swamps of the southern United States to find her mother, who disappeared after a hurricane.
In our South of Midnight review, we appreciated the efforts made by Compulsion Games in creating the game world: the Canadian studio delivered high-level art direction and storytelling. Unfortunately, controller in hand, we also found the gameplay to be very derivative and feel like something we've seen before.
