Pre-Order Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2

-Enjoy the Backyard Battleground and play Flag of Power, Garden Warfare 2’s King of the Hill-inspired mode, where you can jump into the action right away and experience an immersive and escalating battle (don’t worry – EA and PopCap are saving tons of great content and plenty of surprises for launch).

-You’ll also get to try out six new PvZ character classes, as well as a returning roster of your favorite characters from the original Garden Warfare.

-Jump into the 24 person multiplayer modes – the new Herbal Assault and Gardens & Graveyards.

-You’ll be able to play across four distinct maps – Moon Base Z, Frosty Creek, Z-Tech Factory, and Seeds of Time.

I had the opportunity to tour the PopCap studios and sit down with Gary Clay to get some hands-on time with Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 and the new Imp Mech variants. Check it out below:
