I grew up riding around in old vehicles, just like the station wagon you’ll call home in Pacific Drive, so there’s some nostalgia with this upcoming rogue-like. That and the chaotic state of the Olympic Exclusion Zone prove enticing enough for me to jump straight into the game on day one. But when is the Pacific Drive release date and time precisely?
When Does Pacific Drive Release?
The Pacific Drive release date is currently set to February 22, 2024. As of this writing, it’s just a few short days away until you can hop into an old-school wagon, collect parts, upgrade and repair your vehicle, and explore the mysteries of the anomalies permeating the Pacific Northwest.
What Time Does Pacific Drive Launch?
As for a specific time for when the game unlocks, you can expect Pacific Drive to become available at approximately 2 AM CST or 3 AM EST, according to the Steam Page.
However, whether or not they hit this target remains to be seen. Hey, it could launch at midnight Thursday morning, which would be a lot of fun, right? How many of us can stomach waking up that early? Or, better yet, not going to sleep the previous night? I’m getting old, but I don’t know about you.
Does Pacific Drive Have a Pre-Order Bonus?
There is currently no pre-order bonus for Pacific Drive. If you grab the game early on Steam, however, you can enjoy a limited-time 10% discount, which brings the same down from $29.99 to $26.99.
Furthermore, you will receive the We Have Liftoff Customization Pack if you purchase the Pacific Drive: Deluxe Edition. This day-one DLC includes:
- Space Shuttle-Themed Decal Kit
- Custom Glow in the Dark Stars Decal Kit
- Wishing Star Antennae
- Laika the Space Pup Bobblehead
- Spaceship Steering Wheel
- UFO Rear View Mirror w/ Tractor Beam
- Starfighter Hood Ornament
- Rocket Ship, Astronaut, and Moon Stickers
- Custom Astral Shifter
Will you go against the outspoken community and pre-order the game?
