Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare is an online only, class-based, third-person shooter with a tongue in cheek approach to modern day shooters as the title implies, referring to the Modern Warfare series . While the game does take place in the Plants vs. Zombies universe it vastly diverts away from the tower defense genre and instead puts the players in the shoes (or roots) of either zombies or plants in all out warfare. The game's story revolves around a battle between plants and zombies, with the two sides fighting for control of the garden. The plants, led by characters like Peashooter and Sunflower, must use their unique abilities to defeat the zombies and protect the garden.
Players can unlock different classes and abilities for each side, as well as new costume pieces to customize their characters. The game features a variety of modes, including co-op mode called Garden Ops, where up to four players team up to defend the garden against A.I. zombies.
The other modes include competitive teams deathmatch, Gardens & Graveyards, and Classic Team Vanquish. Later updates brought new class variations and maps as well as other game modes like Gnome Bomb, Vanquished Confirmed!, Suburbination, and Taco Bandits.
Xbox 360 and Xbox One owners are required to have a Gold Membership in order to play the game. PC players also need an Origin account through EA to play. In conclusion, Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare is a unique blend of class-based gameplay and humor, with a variety of modes and classes to unlock and customize. With its online-only nature comes some additional requirements, but for fans of the series or third-person shooters, it's definitely worth checking out.
