Dogtown

The Combat Zone of Pacifica is a walled-off area nestled between the eastern hills of Pacifica and the subdistricts of Coastview and West Wind Estate, in southwestern Night City. The Combat Zone will become accessible in the upcoming expansion.

History
At some point after the Time of the Red, investors funded the Pacifica district to become a wealthy touristic destination. Unfortunately, the Unification War (2069 - 2070) halted Pacifica's success in its tracks. As fears mounted that the New United States would invade Night City from Southern California and Pacifica would then become a battlefield, corporations and other investors raced to withdraw their fundingS from the district's ongoing projects. With Night City's economy already on a downturn, the effect on Pacifica was disastrous and much of the district was left incomplete and lawless. Construction work was put on permanent hold, leaving most buildings as unfinished hulks of concrete and steel. Not long after, gangs and the homeless moved in. The worst areas of the district became a Combat Zone, and at some point were walled off from the rest of Pacifica.

By 2077, the Pacifica Combat Zone was still the most dangerous area of Night City. Rumors abounded that the area was used by the NCPD as a place to dispose of cyberpsychos and other dangerous criminals. Moreover, the Combat Zone had seemingly fallen under the rule of a an individual known as the "general" and their militia.
