Ironwood Studios’ supernatural survival-horror video game Pacific Drive became a surprise hit when it was released earlier this year. It’s perhaps no surprise, then, that James Wan’s Atomic Monster banner has acquired the rights to develop Pacific Drive as a television series.

The Game Award-nominated indie title created by Cassandra Dracott is described as “a retropunk-style driving and survival game set to an experimental electronic music soundtrack that challenges players to escape a surreal and abandoned exclusion zone with their car as their only companion in the dark and chilling world… 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. Gather precious resources and investigate what’s been left behind in the Zone; unravel a long-forgotten mystery while learning exactly what it takes to survive in this unpredictable, hostile environment.” The game puts players behind the wheel of a station wagon stranded in a supernaturally-afflicted 1990s Pacific Northwest, where players must weather radioactive storms, sentient dumpsters, and other dangerous obstacles.

James Wan and Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear and Rob Hackett will executive produce the TV series, along with Jeff Ludwig of The Menagerie Productions. The series has not been picked up by a streamer or network.
