But be careful you're only ever one or two bad decisions away from death and in this game, death means that anything you had on you is lost for good. Any loot you escape with can be sold for better weapons, armor, and supplies to start the next round with. In a standard match, you and any teammates you choose to bring along will search for treasure and try to find an exit without being killed. Each comes with their own strengths, weaknesses, and abilities which you'll have to strategically play around against both AI enemies and other players. Before entering the arena, you'll select and customize a class, from magic-casting pyromancers and cryomancers to the more up-close-and-personal rogues and fighters, with more classes coming post-launch. If you're tired of waiting for Dark and Darker to maybe or maybe not come back to Steam, may I offer up Dungeonborne as a promising possible alternative? Just like Dark and Darker, Dungeonborne is a dark fantasy PvPvE game that combines multiplayer extraction-dungeon-crawling with some battle royale spice tossed in for good measure. ![]() In Pacific Drive, your car isn’t just an in-universe vehicle it’s a vehicle to pull you even deeper into a world that we can’t wait to anxiously cruise through later this month.

If you collide with the environment too hard, you risk breaking off panels or popping a tire and in a survival game like this, that can be a real disadvantage.

In every other game I’ve played that features driving, I don’t think I’ve ever once cared much about what happens to my vehicles. When you, a delivery driver, unwittingly find yourself on the inside of the Zone, the only allies you have are some voices guiding you over the radio and the real star of this game: your old, beat-up station wagon.
