EA's Plants vs. Zombies 2 Update

In the new Plants vs. Zombies 2 update, which went live today, there was a raise in levels by 16 as-well as including new Zombies, plants and mechanics.

EA spoke to Liam Robinson, the Art Director for Plants vs. Zombies 2 and interviewed him regarding the update including questions about the new plants, zombies and mechanics.

The two zombies included are the Weasel Hoarder and the Troglobite:

First up is the Weasel Hoarder. She and her weasels enter the stage inside a hollowed out log. How she got in there with them, I'll never know. Once her and her weasels get loose, it’s not pretty. Have those Lightning Reeds ready!

 

The other new zombie update is our Troglobite. He pushes blocks of ice and steamrolls your plants. So don’t let the ice blocks accumulate.

As-well as three new vegetation characters including the Fire Peashooter, Stunion and Rotobaga:

There is Fire Peashooter who shoots fiery peas down a lane. Next is Stunion, his bad breathe can be pretty devastating, even to the undead. Finally, players can look forward to Rotobaga, a cute little 'copter that can shoot diagonally. I believe you can plant her directly on water, since she can hover at low altitudes.
