Okay, so I just heard that South of Midnight is coming to both the PlayStation 5 and the new Switch 2! Xbox Game Studios is publishing it, and Compulsion Games is developing it. It’s a third-person action-adventure game, and we’re looking at a release sometime in spring 2026. Pretty excited about this one!
I was so excited when South of Midnight finally came out! It launched on Xbox Series and PC – you could get it on Steam or through the Microsoft Store – back on April 8th, 2025.
Here is an overview of the game, via Xbox Game Studios:
