FAQs

  • Pacific Drive is available for all announced digital platforms! We’re on PlayStation 5, Steam, and the Epic Games Store - there's also a physical Deluxe edition available for pre-order at most major retailers that releases on April 9th, 2024.

  • The digital deluxe edition is available for the game on PS5, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. It includes the “We Have Liftoff” Cosmetics DLC. All add-ons and DLC content remain the same between PC and Console versions. You can view them on the PlayStation Store or on Steam and the Epic Games Store.

  • In the event that you've purchased the base game and would like to get the Deluxe edition cosmetics later on down the road, this DLC is a standalone addition that includes these cosmetics.

  • The Pacific Drive Soundtrack is currently available to purchase via Steam from the store page.

    If you’re looking for the songs you hear over the radio or jukebox in game, there’s an official playlist available via Spotify.

  • We do not currently have any plans to bring the game to VR platforms.

    Additionally, Ironwood is currently a small but dedicated team, and we do not have the bandwidth to support any virtual reality mods like UEVR or similar.

  • At launch, the game does not support mods. We understand the importance of mods and several of our team members started their gamedev journey in the modding scene. It’s a subject we’re evaluating thoroughly but we have nothing to announce.

  • We aren't planning on supporting MacOS or Linux at this time.

  • Ultrawide monitors are not currently supported natively.

  • The game supports the PlayStation 5 DualSense and Microsoft Xbox controllers and by using Steam’s built in controller support it may be possible to use other third party controllers.

  • Yes - The advanced haptics on DualSense (PS5) controllers are extremely cool and a benefit of developing for PC and the PS5 at the same time means we can use them on PC as well.

  • Not currently. We've been exploring it as a possibility but don't have anything to announce yet.

  • As a smaller team, we have a few areas of focus we need to stick with right now. We'd like to evaluate the Steam Deck at some point, but we don't currently have anything planned.

  • Pacific Drive is structured in a way that allows you to explore and try to survive in the Zone for as long as you can, providing an avenue for you to complete the game at your own pace. The main narrative-related levels will take approximately 15-20 hours to complete, but if you’re aiming for 100% completion of the game it could easily be above 40 hours.

  • Yes, the game takes place entirely in the first-person POV. We've developed Pacific Drive to be first person only as it is core to our mechanics and experience. That being said, we are being attentive to nausea triggers & feedback as we work and are making sure to include various accessibility options for assistance there.

  • There are many options for Motion Sensitivity, as this is a driving game and some players could become nauseous. These include but are not limited to: tumble hiding, camera bob, in/out of car transition, driver’s camera re-centering, in car assistive camera, and more.

    There are also many options for Visuals, including: Color modes, brighter nights, rain and fog intensity, loot and container highlighting, object outline brightness, and more.

    Additionally, there are many gameplay difficulty settings that allow you to configure elements of your gameplay experience how you want them to be.

    Closed captions for dialogue are also provided.

  • What’s a weapon, really? Are there things in the game that you could consider a weapon? Sure, but this isn’t a combat focused game. There’s no guns or knives or anything like that. You craft various tools that help you survive in the zone and keep your car running, and while you’re not going to use these tools to pick a fight, there’s opportunities to get creative with how you use them to protect yourself and your car.

  • We’re focused on building the best single-player experience that we can. We definitely see how this would be fun with more passengers, but we have no plans for multiplayer or co-op.

  • Yes, you’ll be able to use both PlayStation Plus Cloud Saving feature and Steam’s Cloud Saves depending on your platform.

  • Yes, you’ll have the opportunity to earn Steam Achievements and PlayStation Trophies for your accomplishments in game. Some are story related, and others are gameplay focused.
