South of Midnight is officially out now in early access, and alongside the reviews that dropped yesterday, the tech wizards at Digital Foundry have been looking into the Xbox Series X and S versions to see how they shape up.

Basically, they're both really good! It's noted that you're getting a near-flawless 60FPS experience on both Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S here, and although the Series S has a lower resolution, the visual differences are otherwise minimal.

"The differing resolutions have a knock-on effect on depth of field, and shadow quality looks to have been cut back very marginally on Series S, but other visual settings are matched between the two machines."

You can get a look at some side-by-side Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S footage of South of Midnight above, and yeah - there's really not much to grumble about with the Series S version at first glance. Great news for S owners!

We'll leave you with some of Digital Foundry's closing words about the Xbox performance of South of Midnight, and don't forget that if you're not keen on buying early access, the Xbox Game Pass version lands on Tuesday, April 8th.

"Hitting 60fps on both Series X and Series S isn't to be taken for granted, with a great single-mode experience that delivers a good blend of fidelity and performance. The game's frame-rate delivery is solid, barring a few streaming hitches early on, even rarer sub-60 drops in battle and some frame pacing oddities. The one notable catch for Series S is the resolution drop, but it still holds up well given its 4TF profile. All of which makes South of Midnight an easy one to recommend right from the get-go..."
