Pacific Drive is a surprising hybrid between a station wagon racing game and a full-on immersive sim.
Vehicles are often little more than a tool to get players from point A to point B in games, so any title that makes their cars more intrinsic to the experience than that is inherently intriguing. There are games like Days Gone that treat its heroes motorcycle as a main character, as well as titles Death Stranding and Mudrunner that make traversing rugged terrain in vehicles a critical part of the experience.
To start the demo, Game Director Seth Rosen repaired parts of a car in the garage before charting out a path to take. Like Slay the Spire, Pacific Drive runs are made up of encounters on interconnected and branching paths, although the individual levels that make up these routes are pretty big places players can drive around and explore in.
That’s why when players drive around, they’ll encounter various obstacles of both the realistic and unrealistic variety and have to find a way to solve them. To solve the spark tower situation, Rosen had to get out of the car, find the core powering the spark tower, and destroy it with the impact hammer, one of the many tools at his disposal. Whether in or out of the car, it looks like there are going to be a lot of emergent situations that players will need to adapt to.
There are both amphoteric and intense moments to be found. After getting to the wall, the player found a sewer opening they could enter through. Once inside, they found a mostly abandoned facility filled with creepy mannequins. After navigating through this eerie labyrinth and coming out on the other side of the wall, Rosen moved on to the next level, a swamp biome. Here, they approached a large Stabilizer tower, which double as points that allow players to return to the garage mid-run.

REBURN: A new tool to model wildfires in the Pacific Northwest and beyondIn 2006, the Tripod Complex Fire burned more than 175,000 acres in north-central Washington. The fire, which was within the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, was more than three times the size of Seattle. Yet while considered severe at the time, even larger wildfires in 2014, 2015 and 2021 have since dwarfed Tripod.

Researchers find 20,000-year-old refugium for orcas in the northern PacificThe northern Pacific near Japan and Russia is home for several different groups of orcas.

How can this be when they live so close to each other and belong to the same species?
