Compulsion Games announced its new game, South of Midnight, during the Xbox Games Showcase. The third-person action-adventure game takes place in the Louisiana Bayou, with a striking clay-like art-style.
The trailer was primarily focused on story, with a young woman seeking assistance from a large skeleton-like man, playing a guitar in the swamp. The woman is looking for a large magical monster, which begins to arise out of the swamp, as she prepares magic herself.
Anyone seen this huge sneaky creature with teeth like knives?!
