In "Pacific Drive," players will traverse the anomaly-riddled Olympic Exclusion Zone in a trusty station wagon, facing an array of supernatural threats along the way. Your garage serves as a base of operations where you can customize your vehicle, conduct research, and plan your routes deep into the heart of the Zone. It's not just about holding the steering wheel; it's about making the car an extension of your survival instincts. Whether you're swapping out parts or scavenging materials, your decisions will make or break your journey.

Key features include the ability to repair your vehicle on the go, a world that shifts with each expedition, and a crafting system that lets you outfit your car with new equipment. And let's not forget the enigmatic Olympic Exclusion Zone itself—a research-abandoned slice of the Pacific Northwest brimming with anomalies and hazards.

Players will not only face perilous road conditions but also a world twisted by the mysterious ARDA organization's experiments. Surviving in the Zone isn't just a test of driving skill—it's a battle against time, elements, and the eerie unknown. Zone Storms, described as "rolling maelstroms," are among the most fearsome obstacles, requiring speedy getaways lest you get caught in their destructive paths.
