Woke Allegations Will be Coming for an Xbox Game Pass Day 1 2025 Release That Was Allegedly Made to Race-Swap the Formerly White MC

Today’s Xbox 2024 showcase gave us a sneak peek at what Compulsion Games has been working on since it was first revealed last year. Specifically, a breathtakingly beautiful adventure platformer with some soul-stirring combat. Hazel, the main character, is a “Weaver” with magical abilities who battles a ****** bayou monster.

I hope you have guessed which game I am talking about. Yes, it’s South of Midnight. The game is more polished than other games of its kind. It looks like a post-apocalypse world that is still teeming with life. However, despite all of this, the game is going to stir critical controversy in the future.

There was a rumor in March 2024 that absolutely turned the tables for South of Midnight and its developer, Compulsion Games. Fans have been waiting for this title for a long time, but that particular rumor turned that anticipation into criticism.

This rumor comes from former World of Warcraft Team Lead Mark Kern, better known as

This information stated that Compulsion Games reportedly race-swapped the main character of South of Midnight after Sweet Baby Inc. was included in the consultation panel. Grummz claimed in a

thread that Sweet Baby Inc. removed white characters.

In that thread, Grummz also stated that such changes have been reported elsewhere as ‘woke’, including de-feminization of female characters, and cited widely discredited studies as their basis.

According to him,

claimed that race-swapping wasn’t mandatory, but “they make sweeping changes at the studios they publish/partner with.” This change might bring immense heat towards both the game and the publishers, just like Ubisoft had to face backlashes for *********’s Creed Shadows.

More Information About South of Midnight

If we skip the race-swapping part, South of Midnight is going to be a brilliant piece of work. It will be the studio’s third game after Contrast and We Happy Few, but the first one to be released as a member of Xbox Game Studios. It has been six years since it was welcomed into the Xbox family.

According to the gameplay reveal earlier this year, the highly anticipated title appears to be well worth the lengthy wait. We got more details about the game when Paris Lilly of Kinda Funny and Gamertag Radio visited Compulsion Games in Canada.

quick update on South of Midnight

1. You can turn off stop motion animation except in cut scenes

2. Official game length is 12 hours as it’s difficult to gauge exploration time

Lily stated that the highly anticipated title will take players about 12 hours to complete and that the Xbox Series X and S will both run the Unreal Engine 4 game at 60 frames per second.

Given that this upcoming title adopts a distinctive stop-motion art style rather than aiming for lifelike visuals, Compulsion Games’ use of Unreal Engine 4 rather than 5 shouldn’t be a huge deal. However, you will be able to turn off the game’s stop-motion effect in the settings, but the changes will reflect only on the gameplay, not on the cutscenes.

Are you excited about this highly anticipated title?
