Happy Hotfix - I mean, Holidays!
We’re gearing up for a pretty big 2025, but we wanted to make sure we took care of this first - so lets lets get to the good stuff.
Version 1.8.3 - Tidying up the Garage
Drumroll, please - The ‘Garage Barrage’ achievement and progress tracking has been fixed!
This issue arose during the recent 4.27 upgrade and was reported quickly by the community. Thanks so much for everyone who submitted tickets and shared their game logs with us. Here’s what happened — when the game launches we build up a cached mapping of the upgraded stations so that we know which upgrades are available to the player within their garage, and this was tied to how the achievement was tracking progress and completion. That list wasn’t being populated correctly due to an internal change in how certain assets are enumerated with the upgrade to 4.27.
Our fix is two-fold — obviously, fix that mapping, but also we’re re-checking for certain achievements upon loading your game, as it previously only checked for achievement completion upon upgrading something in your garage. Pretty slick!
For those affected by the issue, loading into your game with completed garage upgrades will unlock the achievement immediately. For anyone that hasn’t quite unlocked it yet but noticed the progress was incorrect, your progress will be updated correctly.
For those of you rushing to get 100% completion before the end of the holiday, now you can! Best of luck, drive safe, and have fun.
Before we forget - we'd like to take a moment to appreciate you, our players, for being so locked in and determined to play as much Pacific Drive as possible. We truly wouldn’t have caught this issue and found a fix without your many reports and contextual info.
As a reminder - here’s what you can do if you encounter a bug or crash with Pacific Drive.
- Submit via our support form here on the website[list]
- This goes directly to us in the studio and it’s the #1 way for us to get your reports - it also opens up a channel for us to communicate with you 1:1 and really dig in to find solutions.
- Post your bugs! Get help from other community members, and brainstorm solutions with other hardcore players. There’s nothing like figuring out a quirk that’s plagued you so long you thought it was a bug with a little help from another Breacher.
- Similar to Discord but an additional option just in case you’d rather use it instead.

This fix landed today on PC and on PlayStation, so if you’re a console player - worry not! We’ve got you guys all set to get back in the garage, fully prepped and supplied for another run out into the Zone.
While we’re hard at work on what’s coming next (check out our roadmap!) you can follow along with what we’re up to on X, Instagram, Discord, and Bluesky!
