Plants vs Zombies 2 will introduce new zombies, plants and best of all: new worlds. These new worlds can take place both in the future and in the past.  In one world,  you might be defending a seaport from the pirate zombies while in another world you’ll be in an entirely different time period.

It wouldn’t be Plants vs Zombies without the return of Crazy Dave the crazy and funny neighbor from the original game. Crazy Dave’s main purpose was to be funny, help players out on their zombie slaying adventures and charge them gold coins for plant upgrades at his shop.

Plants vs Zombies 2 will be free to download and free-to-play game on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch on July 18th worldwide. Majority of the game content will be free, including all the levels, new zombies and plants, however; getting upgrades and in-game items will mostly be purchased via micro-transactions.

Here is what Allen Murray, Senior Producer for Plants vs Zombies 2 had to say regarding the announcement.

“We’re confident that players will see the love and attention we’ve put into this game. We’ve created wild new ways to experience the plants and zombies you know and love as well as packing the game with tons of completely new content, and we’re still hard at work coming up with even more cool stuff that will keep Plants vs. Zombies 2 fresh and evolving in the months and years following launch.”
