Your car is your only companion in 'driving survival game' Pacific Drive

pcgamer.com:

The trailer for Pacific Drive starts with an average-looking station wagon slowly driving through a gloomy evening in the Pacific Northwest. Pretty quickly it becomes apparent this is no normal car, however. There's a futuristic display on the dashboard. There are various accessories, some glowing, bolted to the hood and side panels. And when it peels out, it's clear this car is secretly a beast, which is  important because the world around it appears to be pretty monstrous as well.

«Pacific Drive is a run-based, first-person driving survival game,» says developer Ironwood Studios. «Your car is your only companion as you navigate a surreal and anomaly-filled reimagining of the Pacific Northwest.» The trailer shows just how terrifying that world is, with driving rain, howling winds, toxic spore clouds, electrified tumbleweeds, rocky projections bursting through the ground, and a few glimpses of what could maybe, possibly, be zombies.

And you've gotta drive right through it all.

«Structured as a 'road-like', each excursion into the wilderness brings unique and strange challenges, as you restore and upgrade your car from an abandoned garage that acts as your home base,» says Ironwood Studios.

I like just about everything I'm hearing. A driving survival game? Check. It takes place in the «Olympic Exclusion Zone» full of bizarre and dangerous anomalies? Check. A car you can cobble upgrades and gadgets onto? Check. 

Here's a feature list from the official website(opens in new tab), and all of those bullet points sound pretty darn compelling:

Pacific Drive is coming to PC in 2023.
