‘Pacific Drive’ TV Series Based on Indie Survival Game in the Works From James Wan (Exclusive)

James Wan’s Atomic Monster production company has acquired the rights to develop Game Award-nominated indie title “Pacific Drive” into a TV series.
Created by Cassandra Dracott from Ironwood Studios, “Pacific Drive” is 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.
Debuting back in February, “Pacific Drive” was nominated for Best Debut Indie Game at the 2024 Game Awards Dec. 12 and won Best Gameplay at the 2024 Big Festival, where it was also nominated for Best Game. In June, the game was added to the suggested reading list for the Nebula Awards by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association.
Wan and Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear and Rob Hackett will executive produce the TV series adaptation of the project along with Jeff Ludwig of The Menagerie Productions.
