Video Game Press Release: Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2 Now Available To Tear Up Your Tulips

Published February 29, 2016

When Plants Vs. Zombies went into a different direction from their humble tower defense roots to an objective based third person shooter, I was a bit bummed and skeptical about the whole endeavor. But I was thankfully proven wrong when the end result was a fun and quirky shooter with some of its own little unique ideas thrown in there. It was also a surprising hit with casual players as many of my less intense gaming friends were infatuated with the game.

The game was a success and obviously when that happens, sequels come along. Now we got Plants Vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 and it’s already available if you want to go shoot peas at some brain hungry bastards. We are vigorously working on a review for a game so look out for that in the near future!
