Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare is a multiplayer third-person shooter and tower defense video game. It is the third game in the Plants vs. Zombies series, developed by PopCap Games and published by Electronic Arts. The game was released on Xbox 360, Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. The game features co-op along with competitive multiplayer modes, where players can control the plants as well as the zombies.

The player can take control of plants or zombies from a third person perspective in either a cooperative or competitive multiplayer environment.

To progress in the game, players must complete challenges unique to each class. These challenges, once completed, will level up the character allowing the player to access features such as upgrades, new characters, weapon skins and character clothing. The game's challenge pop-ups closely resemble the notification system used on the Xbox One.

The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions feature split-screen multiplayer as well as Boss Mode, which is similar to Commander mode from Battlefield 4. less
