Good information: EA have introduced Plants Vs. Zombies 3.
Bad information: it’s free-to-play once more, and microtransactions have been a blight on PvZ 2.
Nullifying information: however this time it’s only a cellular game so who even cares. Ian Arts, you’re a monster.
After the microtransaction-muddled Plants vs. Zombies 2 and the I’ve-heard-they’re-good-but-they’re-not-what-I-want multiplayer Garden Warfare spin-offs, I had hoped EA may return to plain ol’ PC PvZ. Sadly not, it appears.
The 2009 authentic remains to be a joy, a cheery tackle tower defence with pea-spitting crops, bungee-jumping zombies, stoics nuts, a stunning theme tune, and simply sufficient technique to be rewarding with out baffling. The second game remains to be a multitude, with microtransactions making every little thing grody in that early-2010s EA manner. But EA have discovered rather a lot from their years of horrible monetisation, and I’d hoped… nope, PvZ three is seemingly not even coming to PC.
PopCap announced PvZ 3 out of nowhere on Tuesday with the launch of a free pre-alpha take a look at. On Android. And Apple later. With no point out of PC or owt. Seeing as that is very a lot the way in which to announce a cellular game, and really a lot not the way in which to announce a PC game, I’ve little hope. But I do have just a little.
“At PopCap, we’ve been working on PvZ for years and want to bring our beloved plants and zombies to current players and the next generation of players everywhere,” PopCap mentioned. A studying so beneficiant it’s bordering on delusional hope may see that “everywhere” as together with “on PC”. Even I’m not that delusional. Am I? Maybe I need to be.
Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
If you do need it in your pocket, PopCap are launching the PvZ three pre-alpha in phases for Android on Google Play. They pull the obtain when every section is filled with gamers, so I suppose simply blindly preserve visiting a retailer web page which possible gained’t exist? Here’s what it appears like when performed by somebody who retains stopping to verify for updates about WWE movies on YouTube.
I want it weren’t fairly. I want that Bonk Choy weren’t so pretty. Boooooooooooooooooooooo.
