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 is set in a humorous take on modern day warfare, where plants and zombies are at war. The story revolves around each side's classes and their unique abilities and strengths. Players can choose from four different plant classes: Peashooter, Sunflower, Cactus, and Chomper, each with its own abilities and upgrades.
There are several game modes to play in Garden Warfare, including:
Welcome Mat: A basic team deathmatch where players start out with default classes as well as abilities and each time they are vanquished they are given a health boost.
Team Vanquish: A standard team deathmatch where the team with 50 vanquishes win the match.
Gardens & Graveyards: A mode where plants defend gardens against zombies with the goal of the zombies to stay within a predetermined area around the garden.
Classic Team Vanquish: Team deathmatch but with default classes and abilities.
Classic Gardens & Graveyards: The same mode but with default classes and abilities.
Mixed Mode: A mix of modes and maps that randomly cycle through.
The game also features a 4-player co-op mode called Garden Ops, where up to four friends or strangers can team up and defend their garden against 10 waves of AI zombies.
Upgrades and Customization
Players can unlock new classes, abilities, and cosmetic items by completing games and challenges and earning coins. These upgrades can be used to customize the player's plant or zombie.
Xbox 360 and Xbox One owners are required to have a Gold Membership in order to play the game. PC players are also required to have an Origin account through EA to play. Later updates brought new class variations, maps, and other game modes, including Gnome Bomb, Vanquished Confirmed!, Suburbination, Taco Bandits, and more.
