Last year saw the release of Pacific Drive, a unique survival game all about upgrading and maintaining a scrappy station wagon.

While it's received many meaningful updates in the time since, developer Ironwood Studios has announced the very first premium DLC expansion for the game: Whispers in the Woods.

As you can see from the announcement trailer, Whispers in the Woods is leaning further into the spooky side of Pacific Drive.

According to the press release, a mysterious group of anomaly-obsessed fanatics has invaded the Olympic Exclusion Zone, and they're causing all kinds of strange new effects.

As well as introducing new lore, the DLC adds new junction types to explore, Artifacts that change up the gameplay in various ways, new anomalies, new car parts, and more.

Players will be able to engage with Whispers in the Woods at any point after the game's opening hours.

There's no word on a price or release date yet, but we do know it's due out before the end of the year.

Although the game has some finicky menus and controls, we really enjoyed our time with Pacific Drive, so we're pleased it's getting DLC to flesh it out even more.
