GREAT GAME

This is an all-around GREAT 3-d person narrative adventure. Solid storytelling, solid gameplay, solid acting, and just overall really great worldbuilding. I want a sequel!!

Great all around 3rd Person RPG

I really loved this game with no complaints. I mean the graphics, controls, and story line were completely on point. Great dialog that wasn't confusing, and the combat/fighting with enemies (bosses included) was not insanely difficult (like some other games I know that are unnecessarily hard... Silksong, SMH). I was actually able to enjoy the plot. My emergence into the story was inevitable. Very good game right here.

Great story, nice new IP

Combat gets super repetitive and old quick, but overall excellent story. Fantastic soundtrack, characters, and animation. I still listen to some of the music. It's really a good meditation on grief and southern folklore. Hopefully in the future the combat isn't so repetitive - which is literally the only constructive thought for this game. I kind of felt like "not this again" lol when I'd pull up to an obvious arena-like fighting zone. To be fair there is a skill-tree, but just didn't really make me feel like anything was significantly different than the other powers. Glad it became available for PS5, it originally was only an Xbox game.

From the creators of Contrast and We Happy Few, the award-winning South of Midnight is a spellbinding third person action-adventure game set in the American Deep South.

As Hazel, you will explore the mythos and encounter creatures of Southern folklore in a macabre and fantastical world. When disaster strikes her hometown, Hazel is called to become a Weaver: a magical mender of broken bonds and spirits. Imbued with these new abilities, Hazel will confront and subdue dangerous creatures, untangle the webs of her own family's shared past and - if she's lucky - find her way to a place that feels like home.

A DARK MODERN FOLKTALE
When a hurricane rips through Prospero, Hazel is pulled into a Southern Gothic world of memory made real and must embark on a journey to rescue her mother and safeguard her hometown. In this folktale for modern times, Hazel will need to reconcile the weight of family, history, and legacy against her own identity.

CONFRONT MYTHICAL CREATURES
Wield an ancient power to restore creatures and uncover the traumas that consume them. Cast weaving magic to fight destructive Haints, explore the diverse regions of the South, and reweave the tears in the Grand Tapestry.

HAUNTING BEAUTY OF THE GOTHIC SOUTH
Discover the lush, decayed county of Prospero and its locals. Experience a crafted visual style, touching storytelling, and immersive music inspired by the complex and rich history of the South.
