South of Midnight's beautifully rendered digital-handmade world might look like a stop-motion movie, but developer Compulsion Games tells us that the "the gameplay itself is actually at 60fps."
While a stop-motion effect is enabled by default in the upcoming Xbox Series X game, Compulsion knows this element might not be for everyone. "It's a normal framerate," says art director Whitney Clayton of South of Midnight's solid 60 frames-per-second action, with individual character models and environment assets toggled during production to "have different amounts of stop motion treatment."
