Xbox exclusive South of Midnight comes to PS5 and Switch 2 next year

Since their decision to begin releasing Xbox console exclusives onto Sony’s PlayStation platform, Microsoft has ported over a wide range of its first-party releases at a surprisingly rapid cadence. Just days on from the PS5 launch of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2025, Compulsion Games’ South of Midnight has now been announced to be coming to both PlayStation and the Nintendo Switch 2 in Spring of next year.

South of Midnight is the first project from studio Compulsion Games since they were acquired by Microsoft back in 2018. Released earlier this year for Xbox and PC, the title was praised for its music, storytelling and art design, but was unfortunately hampered by repetitive gameplay and combat in particular.

That said, South of Midnight did resonate with many, and so as part of Microsoft’s continued push towards 3rd-party publishing, the company has now announced that the title is coming to both the PS5 and Nintendo Switch 2 some time in “Spring 2026.”

No further details have been shared, however given the fact that the game originally launched in April earlier this year, it would not be surprising to see its multi-platform release be tied into South of Midnight’s 1st anniversary.

As with many of the other Xbox games ported to PlayStation, hopefully this new release comes with some included enhancements/improvements.
