Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare News: Pop Cap and EA reveal when gamers will be able to play the newest Plants vs Zombies game on their console or PC.

Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare, an Xbox exclusive, will be arriving on both Xbox One and Xbox 360 on February 18, 2014 in North America and on February 20 in Europe. Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare is an action-packed third person multiplayer shooter that puts players in the shoes - or roots - of their favorite characters from the popular Plants vs Zombies franchise.

Powered by Frostbite 3, Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare features three dimensional worlds blooming with vibrant colors and unique landscapes. The game has more than 10 maps and three distinct modes including two 12v12 competitive multiplayer modes called Garden & Graveyards and Team Vanquish, and a four-player co-operative mode called Garden Ops. In Garden & Graveyards, plants must defend their garden bases from zombies attempting to turn them into spooky graveyards. Players can square off in Team Vanquish as they try to send the other team to the compost pile. For gamers that just want to have a fun time with friends, they can work together in Garden Ops battling off waves of zombies on the attack.

“Gamers across the world have fallen in love with the Plants vs. Zombies characters and now they’ll get to see them in an entirely new light,” said Brian Lindley, Producer on Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare. “Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare give the series’ fans and shooter players a fun, new experience that they’ll both enjoy as they blast, chomp and laugh their way through co-op and head-to-head online action.”

On Xbox One, Plants vs Zombies: Garden Warfare includes two extra modes including local cooperative split screen and Boss Mode. With split screen, players can team up with a friend on the couch to fight against an endless horde of zombies. In Boss Mode, gamers can utilize their Kinect or a Smartglass device in any of the other gameplay modes to support their teams. Players have a top down view of the battlefield and can help out their teammates with intel, health drops, revive stations and explosive artillery strikes.

Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare will be available for $39.99 on Xbox One and $29.99 for Xbox 360 and PC. Are you looking forward to a new Plants vs Zombies game?
