Getting a new interesting genre blend together is developer Ironwood Studios and publisher Kepler Interactive with their upcoming title Pacific Drive. This game is going to be a run-based driving survival adventure where players will face supernatural dangers on each expedition out into the Olympic Exclusion Zone.

With your car as your only companion, you’ll navigate a surreal and anomaly-filled reimagining of the Pacific Northwest, making your base of operations in an abandoned garage to research new parts to upgrade and maintain your station wagon. As you chart routes deeper into the Zone, you’ll gather precious resources and investigate what’s been left behind to learn exactly what it takes to survive in this unpredictable, hostile environment. 

Speaking about their partnership with Kepler Interactive, Alexander Dracott, Ironwood Studio Head and Pacific Drive Creative Director, said: "We’re incredibly excited to share that we've partnered with Kepler Interactive to release Pacific Drive. Their unique approach to how they work with developers is a great fit for Ironwood Studios and we’re looking forward to sharing more together soon." 

Pacific Drive is set for a 2023 release on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. What do you think about surviving a hostile environment within a vehicle?
