Well, it's a temperature forced shutdown alright, to protect your GPU. When you say suddenly, do you mean the temperature just jumps up within the next 10 seconds or gradually increase within the next 10 minutes or an hour? Have you tried to see if this is happening to any of your other games? If this is happening with other games, then it could be your GPU, but if it only happens in PvZ GW2, then obviously it's the game. Although so far you're the first I've seen/read that has this problem with the game, so it might not be the game.

@xXFrozenChromeXx If there's a fault with the GPU drivers that could also be a factor with overheating. I'd try a complete clean reinstall, then check again. 

Hopefully this is effective, otherwise it's looking more and more like a hardware issue.

    This program completely erase any leftover of old drivers.

    http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html

    Download the latest version, then it should appear in your download folder, go into the download folder and extract the DDU archive into your download folder, 3 new things should appear in your download folder. Go to GeForce.com and download the latest nvidia drivers. Then look for a white and grey icon that says DDU in the download folder and double click on that. It will ask you to go into safe mde, say yes, it will restart the PC and bring you to safe mode, then a window should pop up to ask you what drivers to uninstall and clean, double click on the DDU icon again in the download folder if it doesn't pop up . Then choose nvidia drivers to uinstall. Now choose clean and restart as it recommends to you, then just let it do the work and then it will restart and bring you back to desktop. After that, just install the nvidia drivers you downloaded in your download folder, after its done, restart one more time just to be sure everything is running as intended. I'm sorry I can't be more specific, since I'm not at home and on my PC atm, I hope it's clear enough to understand though.

    After all that is done, try other games that is equally demanding to PvZ GW2 to see if you face the same heat problem. If you still do, then I think it's a hardware problem, which you can try to send it back for warranty repair if you're still under warranty or buy a new GPU. There's not a lot you can do about heat problems other than clean the GPU, raise the fan speed to higher setting which gets louder, or go with water cooling. Obviously water cooling is expensive, so that's not exactly an option to consider.
