Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for
Neighborville (Graphic: Business Wire)
The newest entry in the world’s wackiest shooter franchise
features the expansive suburban region of Neighborville where
another coniferous conflict between the brain-less and botanicals
is brewing. The battle continues to bloom with three free-roam
regions that will have players kicking grass beyond the town. With
20 fully customizable character classes, six glorious online
multiplayer modes and the new Giddy Park social region, Plants vs.
Zombies: Battle for Neighborville is blooming with freshly picked
content for players of all walks of life.
“We’re thrilled for adventure-seeking neighbors around the world
to fully experience our biggest and most accessible shooter ever
with Plants vs Zombies: Battle for Neighborville,” said Rob
Davidson, Game Director at PopCap in Vancouver. “We set out to
release an early edition of our game that was available for six
weeks before today so we could polish performance, listen to
feedback and establish a more stable launch. We thank our fans for
joining us on this journey.”
Like the previous Plants vs. Zombies™ shooter titles,
over-the-top multiplayer gameplay continues to plant itself at the
core of Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville with six
online multiplayer modes including the new and frenetic 4v4 Battle
Arena in the Funderdome. Alongside returning character favorites
such as Peashooter, Sunflower, Imp and Mech and Soldier, players
will bring even more strategic depth to the all-out botanical
battle with six newly-sprouted faces such as the flame-blowing
Snapdragon, and a new zombie of few words and fewer thoughts, 80s
Action Hero. Also, new to the lineup is the Team Play character
class where you and up to three others play together as Oak and
Acorn for the plants and Space Cadet for the Zombie faction. All
characters can get decked out with the wildest customizations
yet.
Ridiculous quests, vibrant cosmetics and a familiar cast of zany
characters are scattered across the game’s three free-roam regions,
including the familiar central location of Neighborville Town
Center, as well as adventuring through the outer edges of
Neighborville in the hot and dusty Mount Steep, and the lush and
strange Weirding Woods. Players can join forces in split screen
couch co-op* and online co-op across every mode, whether it is
battling through the flourishing free-roam regions or jumping into
online multiplayer battles.
Additionally, players can jump down into the new Giddy Park
social region in-between the action to engage in light multiplayer
battles, while on different amusement park rides, or use the social
board to interact with other players and group up. Giddy Park also
includes a target range to test each character’s wildly different
abilities and also a giant piano to play a catchy tune.
Transformative monthly events such as October’s spooky Lawn of Doom
Festival will also allow players to unlock seasonal cosmetic
rewards and challenges.
Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville Standard Edition
includes the full base game for $39.99**. The Deluxe Edition
includes 2 legendary costumes for Peashooter and 80s Action Hero,
an exclusive Battle for Neighborville digital comic and 5 emojis
for $49.99**. Passionate fans who purchased the Founder’s Edition,
