Compulsion Games, the studio behind the critically acclaimed games Contrast and We Happy Few, has announced its latest game, South of Midnight. The third-person action-adventure game takes place in a magical version of the American South, and will be available on Xbox Series X|S and PC as part of Xbox Game Pass.

The game’s trailer shows a young woman named Hazel traveling through a swamp, seeking help from a large skeletal man playing a guitar. Hazel is on a quest to find a large magical monster, and she uses her own spell called Weaving to help her on her journey. Weaving is a type of spell that works more like magical sewing than traditional video game spells.

During a chat with Xbox Wire, director David Sears unveiled the backdrop for South of Midnight, which focused on pastoral elements of the American South. Although the game takes place in a fictionalized rendition of the contemporary realm, players will not be roaming the modern, bustling metropolises of game.
