PopCap Announce Plants Vs Zombies: Garden Warfare, Peggle 2

plants v zombies 7

Plants Vs Zombies has become a global phenomenon, and no more proof of that is needed than the support that Popcap are pumping into it this year. Plants Vs Zombies 2: It’s About Time is going to give fans of the franchise a fix of a gameplay that just can’t be gotten anywhere else, but the newly announced Garden Warfare is something else entirely. A third-person action game, Garden Warfare is like Plants Vs Zombies mixed with Orcs Must Die and again with some class based shooter, Garden Warfare looked far better than you’d ever expect. The textures and design were out of this world.

The game is very similar to its 2D counterpart, but with control over actual plants. In the four player demonstration, each player took on the role of a different plant. Each plant is designated a class – the sunflower is a healer, for instance – and to win, each player must successfully fulfil their role. All of your favourite plants and zombies, plus a few from Plants Vs Zombies 2, will be making an appearance in Garden Warfare, so it’ll be a must play for genre fans and PVZ fans alike. Garden Warfare will be available on Xbox 360 and Xbox One initially, although ports may be made at a later date. 

Popcap’s segment of the EA 2013 E3 conference was concluded with a single sentence announcement: Peggle 2 will be coming later this year. How on earth do Popcap do it, and how on earth am I going to manage to find time to do less important things, like eat and sleep?
