In this new video, Ironwood Studio Director and Pacific Drive Creative Director Alexander Dracott looks back on his passion for road trips along the Pacific coast in the northwest of the USA, which planted the seed for the project. Alex and the whole Ironwood team talk in detail about the creative process behind the genesis of Pacific Drive and its unique survival gameplay, a mix of first-person exploration and car escape.
Commenting on his partnership with Kepler Interactive, Alex Dracott says: « We’re delighted to be partnering with Kepler Interactive on Pacific Drive. Their unique approach and way of working with developers fits well with Ironwood Studios’ values, and we look forward to sharing more information about the project with you. »
Pacific Drive is an adventure survival game based on driving and exploration. Face a variety of supernatural dangers on every excursion into the Olympic Exclusion Zone: you have an abandoned garage as your base of operations, while that good old station wagon is your only companion in this surreal reinterpretation of the Pacific Northwest. Collect resources and investigate the strange events that seem to govern this particularly hostile environment, knowing that you’ll need new spare parts to keep your vehicle running. You’ll need to venture deeper and deeper into the Zone.
Pacific Drive will hit PlayStation 5 and PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store) in 2023. Add it to your Wish List and more at https://www.pacificdrivegame.com/.
