In this captivating game, you’ll step into the shoes of Hazel, a brave young woman navigating a world steeped in Southern folklore and dark magic.

The team at Compulsion Games is thrilled to share this journey with you—so grab your controller and dive in!

Meet the Legend: Two-Toed Tom

Now, let’s talk about one of the most jaw-dropping (literally) aspects of this game: the legendary creature known as Two-Toed Tom. Imagine a beast that’s not just a figment of imagination but a creature that’s larger than life—40 feet long to be exact! To celebrate the launch of South of Midnight, Xbox has brought this monstrous gator to life in the murky waters of Marrero, Louisiana. This location was chosen for its eerie resemblance to the game’s Southern-inspired setting, complete with ancient cypress trees and the spine-chilling sounds of the bayou.

But what makes Tom so terrifying? Once a mistreated pet, he was pushed to the brink of survival, even going so far as to chew off his own toes to escape captivity. Now, he’s a force to be reckoned with, having grown larger and more ferocious over the years. He’s been known to feast on livestock, demolish buildings, and send entire towns into a panic. The villagers tried everything to stop him—bullets, poison, even dynamite—but nothing could quell his insatiable hunger. And now, he’s lying in wait, ready to strike again.

Experience the Thrill of the Bayou

So, what can players expect when they step into Hazel’s shoes? South of Midnight is a darkly enchanting third-person action-adventure game that immerses you in a reimagined Deep South. As Hazel, you’ll navigate a land rich with ancient myths and supernatural forces, using your magical abilities to confront terrifying foes, including the infamous Two-Toed Tom. The visuals are nothing short of stunning, and the storytelling is deep and engaging, drawing players into a world where the past is never truly gone, and legends come to life in the most unexpected ways.

To enhance the experience, the recreation of Tom features an immersive gaming space complete with four 42-inch screens connected to Xbox Series X consoles. Imagine navigating through the perilous world of South of Midnight while surrounded by the haunting atmosphere that the bayou has to offer. It’s not just a game; it’s an experience that will leave you on the edge of your seat.

Join the Adventure

So, are you ready to face your fears and uncover the mysteries of the bayou? With South of Midnight, you’re not just playing a game; you’re stepping into a world filled with magic, danger, and unforgettable legends. The Compulsion Games team has poured their heart and soul into this project, and now it’s your turn to explore, survive, and perhaps even thrive in a realm where the supernatural is just a heartbeat away.
