We’ve been keeping a secret locked up in the garden shed for a while now and it’s been driving us Crazy. But today, we finally get to let the Peashooter out of the bag.

On December 3, we’re bringing your favorite backyard right to your Apple devices as Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted launches on Apple Arcade!

Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted is a horticultural restoration of the original 2009 game, optimized for today’s displays with native widescreen support. Now you can experience a faithful remaster of the original game fitted to modern screens, with the same responsive lane-defense gameplay.

Because this Neighborhood Watch operates on Apple Arcade, you won’t find a single sales-zombie or premium-fertilizer microtransaction here. It is pure, uninterrupted home defense. Unless you count Crazy Dave’s car shop. Plus, you can shuffle your progress between your iPhone, Mac, Apple TV, or iPad, so your game goes wherever you do.

Meet "Party Mode" - Exclusive to Apple Arcade 🎉

As a special treat for players on Apple Arcade, we’ve added a fun cosmetic option called Party Mode. When you turn it on, zombies swap their suits for neon shirts, Cherry Bombs look like colorful pinatas, and you’ll see bursts of confetti when plants like Squash or Potato Mine go to work. Using it turns a standard zombie raid into a total fiesta.

Test your Tactical Prowess ☁️

If you want to test your strategic skills, PvZ: Replanted includes 2 challenging setups:

Cloudy Day Mode: Overcast skies roll in, cutting down the amount of natural sun falling from the sky, and making your Sunflowers fall asleep. Prepare to manage a very tight sun budget.

Rest in Peace (R.I.P.) Mode: This is a high-stakes challenge where losing your brains just once means game over, and you start your entire run back at level one. It’s tense and will test your garden tending skill to the limit.

Defend the Lawn Together 🤝

If you prefer a co-operative experience, we’ve brought back Local Co-Op so you can grab a buddy, sit back, and defend the same lawn as a team. There is nothing quite like screaming at your friend to plant a Wall-nut while a Gargantuar slowly crushes your front line.

Grab your gardening gloves! 📅

PvZ: Replanted is a great way to experience the original lane-defense game on modern Apple devices, complete with its classic humor and ‘just one more level’ vibe. Mark your calendars for December 3 because the horde is on its way, and Crazy Dave is going to need every spare green thumb in the neighborhood.
