Pacific Drive (Deluxe Edition) - 9th April

We enjoyed our time with Pacific Drive when it screeched onto PS5 in February, and now a fancy physical-only Deluxe version's coming with art cards, a traveller’s journal, a deluxe sleeve, a reversible coversheet, and a pack of in-game cosmetic items:

Pacific Drive is a run-based, first-person driving survival game. Your car is your only companion as you navigate a surreal and anomaly-filled reimagining of the Pacific Northwest.

Ravaged by strange, powerful creatures, Earth has been abandoned, and what is left of the decimated human race has fled to a Colony in outer space. After travelling from the Colony, 7th Airborne Squad member EVE arrives on the desolate remains of our planet with a clear-cut mission: to save humankind by reclaiming Earth from the Naytiba – the malevolent force that has devastated it.
