Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted – Is it Better or Ruined?

Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted - Revitalized Classic Brings Strategy and Fun to New Generations

By Pedro Zambarda, Chief Editor Created by Popcap Games in 2009 during the rise of mobile gaming, Plants vs. Zombies became a classic more than 15 years ago. After Electronic Arts (EA) acquired the franchise, Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted was released on October 23, 2025, as a faithful HD version that preserves the original art. The latest update includes festive Feastivus looks for Peashooter, Wallnut, Regular Zombie, and Conehead Zombie, and version 1.500 is now available for PS5, PS4, PC, and Xbox One. Given its strategic gameplay, Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted is ideally experienced with a keyboard and mouse. In story mode, players unlock plants, mushrooms, bombs, and tomb eaters. Players will find the gameplay quickly becomes frantic and addictive. The scenarios alternate between open sun—ideal for plant photosynthesis—night, which requires more mushrooms for energy, and water, where plants must sustain structures. The game offers content for two players for R$89, aiming to appeal to new generations, and for players who experienced the mobile wave when the game sold 300,000 copies in nine days, it provides a nostalgic experience. While not the most innovative title, Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted has been well-received despite some negative reviews on Steam.
