Plants vs Zombies 2 Launches
SEATTLE, Washington – August 15, in the year of our Lord
2013 — PopCap Games, creator of some of the world’s
most beloved video game franchises and a division of Electronic
Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA), today announced the worldwide
availability of Plants vs. Zombies™ 2. The sequel to Plants vs.
Zombies, Plants vs. Zombies 2 will be initially available
exclusively for iPhone®, iPad® and iPod touch®. Featuring a
time-travel theme that propels players through different
historical eras to face off with zombies from various time
periods, Plants vs. Zombies 2 is free to play and can be found
on the App Store around the world, in seven different languages
with additional languages supported soon. The game will become
available for other platforms later this year and beyond.
Designed as an ever-expanding universe that will offer regular
updates including new worlds full of new plants, zombies and
challenges beyond the first three that comprise the initial
game, Plants vs. Zombies 2 extends the classic gameplay of the
original and provides players with dozens of all-new levels,
plants and zombies. While the vast majority of the game is
entirely free to play (players can face every zombie and access
every level in every world at no cost), Plants vs. Zombies 2
players can also purchase upgrades and other in-game items.
In addition to new places to explore and discover, Plants vs.
Zombies 2 includes a wide variety of gameplay enhancements,
including Plant Food, which drops from glowing zombies and
offers a temporary but powerful boost to your plant attacks.
Plants vs. Zombies 2 also includes all-new gesture-based
power-ups that enable players to interact with zombies directly,
to augment their plant defenses.
Key features of Plants vs. Zombies 2 include:
- Three all-new worlds to explore, with more worlds coming soon!
- More than 60 levels at launch, with dozens more coming in
future worlds
- Dozens of new plants and zombies, each with unique powers and
behaviors

- Touch-screen power-ups that let you pinch, flick and zap
zombies directly
- Side missions, mini-games and other brain-teasing challenges
in every world
- Challenge Zones at the end of each world that provide
never-ending quests for glory
