"Plants vs Zombies Turns 16: Enjoy Discounts and More"

Sixteen years ago, a humble peashooter fired its first shot, sparking a legendary battle for the backyard in Plants vs. Zombies. To celebrate this beloved game’s Sweet 16, the developers are throwing a backyard bash straight out of Neighborville.

A Brief History of a Gaming Icon

In 2009, Plants vs. Zombies made its debut on desktops under Popcap Games. Its quirky humor and addictive gameplay quickly won hearts worldwide. By 2010, it hit mobile platforms, and by 2012, EA acquired Popcap. Plants vs. Zombies 2: It’s About Time followed in 2013, introducing new worlds and even zanier mechanics.

Fast forward to today, and Plants vs. Zombies 3: Welcome to Zomburbia is still in development. After undergoing a soft launch and subsequent rework, the team promises a fresh art style and a classic tower defense experience.
