What’s worse than being frozen during winter? Facing off a horde of zombies, out for your brains!!!  Come Feastivus with us by checking out this update of Plants vs. Zombies 2!

New Plants:

Frost Bonnet

Introducing Frost Bonnet, the newest fire?? Or was that ice?? Actually both: a combo plant that is part of the Winter-mint family! Frost Bonnet can switch between fire and ice bloom. Each mode deals a different damage type allowing it to both set zombies on fire and freeze them solid in a nearby radius.

• Plant Food

  • Launches a combo fire and ice attack at nearby zombies. Zombies destroyed will turn into an ice wall.

• Strategy

  • Frost Bonnet deals bonus damage to zombies affected by chill. Tap to toggle between fire and ice stance to maximize its damage.

• Fun Fact

  • Frost Bonnet has basically two cores or two personalities. The hot head (fire) is always first to jump right into action. While the cool headed (ice) is calculating and plots out its goals thoroughly! Only one of its cores can be active at any time. While one side is active the other is sleeping. Neither side knows exactly what the other is doing or thinking, but they are aware of each other's existence. They can't consciously switch on their own, and not even Penny knows what triggers the switch. 

• Bonus

  • After every zombie battle, every plant chips in to help with yard chores. Some plants help with the recycling. While others help collect the mountain of zombie parts. Everyone plays a part in maintaining Dave’s pristine lawn. Except for Frost Bonnet who is forbidden to help, since it can never decide on what it wants to do next.

Znake Lily

Znake Lily launches tornados to target and transform zombies into plant “zomboids”. As the Znake Lily levels up it can transform zombies into stronger plant “zomboids”.

• Plant Food

  • Launches multiple tornados to transform zombies into different types of “zomboids”.

• Strategy

  • Due to Znake Lily’s huge target radius but slow attack speed, it can be a great back to support the defense and instantly remove threats close to Znake Lily.

• Fun Fact

  • Znake Lily is often observed pranking random people by hypnotizing them with its enchanting gaze. Once it made Dave clean out the whole front lawn as he was being lazy. Till this day Dave thinks that the front lawn magically cleans itself sometimes. 

• Bonus

  • Znake Lily loves the new year because on that day people usually make resolutions to transform their lives for the better. Every year it will read everyone’s resolution and feel great about how people are willing to change themselves in the upcoming year.

  • Znake Lily always wanted to be in the entertainment business and showcase its enchanting magic to the world. But in order to defend the world from zombies, Znake Lily has sacrificed its dream and put its magical talents to protect the world.
