Plants Vs Zombies: Heroes Balance Update for June 2025

Hello Heroes,

The latest in our series of balance updates has sprouted for Plants vs. Zombies Heroes! You can download it now and then sprout into battle and discover new strategies! Here’s a look at what has changed:

Plant characters feel lackluster after the previous balance patch and don’t have the same kind of game impact as other Zombie characters. Our goal is to ensure that every strategy has a chance to shine so that a diverse range of cards can contribute to exciting gameplay. The Plant Characters were seeing low playtime as well, where many players have been picking Zombies more in the Battle League, leading to longer queues. This patch looks to change that by giving the Plant characters a much-needed boost, thereby giving an opportunity to create more balanced and dynamic deck-building options. We made some quality of life tuning changes for them so they should play and feel better.
