Ironwood Studios dish on Pacific Drive, their novel mashup of STALKER and car crafting.
You hop into a rundown station wagon in the Pacific Northwest and start driving down a beat up road as rain begins to pitter patter across the windshield. Trapped in a paranormal playground called the Olympic Exclusion Zone, strange anomalies appear outside the windows. Rock formations suddenly jut out of the middle of the road. Glowing beams distort the properties of physics and toss the car around like a child’s plaything. Eventually strange machines descend from the ether and pursue you with menace.
If you’re lucky you can collect some scrap, discover a few secrets, and capture enough energy from mysterious pillars littered across the terrain to activate a gateway back to the safety of your garage before things really start to go sideways. Once you spot a red storm coming over the horizon in the rear-view mirror you know it’s time to get the hell out. A tumbleweed-sized mechanical burr latches onto your hood. Then a buzzsaw slashes through the car door. Electric crawlers, floating abductors, and other strange creatures spewed forth from the Zone start circling.

Where’s the Hogwarts review 😂😂😂😂😂😂
A nice indie.
Looks cool, but also… Felt like the editing was really fast-paced, so I don't really understand the ambience or pacing.
Needs more chiki briki
Looks good hope it's like a journey where you have to maintain a vehicle through extreme hazards
Is this a mobile game? Because holy shit that framerate.
looks interessting, but still needs some polishing. and please bring a psvr2 version.
Oh, I really hope this will come to PSVR2. This looks right up my alley.
It looks like the wagon queen family truckster
the roads here look a little too aggressive and seem to require your constant attention, which is fine. but what worked well in The Long Drive was that there would be long stretches of clear roads with an occasional rock and can sort of lead you to hazardous crash the moment you stop paying attention to the road.
