Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare

Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare is an online multiplayer video game based in the third-person shooter and tower defense categories. The game is the third release in the Plants vs. Zombies series, so if you've played the previous games, you should definitely check out what this new installment has to offer. The game has been initially planned for the PC, but its popularity has made the developers release versions for the Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

The game features two main playing modes: competitive and cooperative. In competitive play, you get to control either a plant or a zombie and go against the other players. Co-op mode lets you team up with a certain number of other players in order to achieve an objective. Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare has several subcategories of play modes to choose from. Examples include modes where players defend or try to capture a variety of in-game objectives, or a classic "deathmatch" where the goal is just to defeat as many opposing players as possible. No matter what your style is, you're sure to find a game mode that you enjoy playing.

As the Plants vs. Zombies series is more of a casual game that was initially meant to be just a mobile or web-based series, you can expect the controls and game objectives to be simple to understand. Even people who rarely play video games will be able to figure out how to control their plant or zombie character without too much difficulty. The game has been hugely popular since it was first launched and there have been seven free expansion packs launched for it, with additional ones expected in the near future. That way, you can still have fun discovering new game modes and objectives, even if you've already spent a lot of time playing the main game.
