Despite what you might have heard from the gaming media, the South of Midnight player count is anything but a success a month after release.
When South of Midnight was announced, it promised something bold—a narrative-driven action-adventure steeped in Southern Gothic folklore with a unique stop-motion art style. It debuted with fanfare during Microsoft’s showcase events and landed day-one on Xbox Game Pass. From the moment it was revealed, the gaming press rallied around it.
But a month after launch, the South of Midnight player count numbers tell a very different story: almost no one is playing it.
