It shouldn’t be necessary for the third game in a series, not to mention from a publisher the size of EA, to go through a foreshortened Early Access period like this, with a six week drip feed of additional modes and features throughout. This is where I’m not terribly chuffed with Battle for Neighborville. You can buy the game now with a Founder’s Edition available for a discounted $29.99 price versus $39.99 for the final release on 18th October. EA haven’t waited until six weeks before launch to announce the game, but have in fact announced and effectively released the game at the same time. The game will continue to grow and evolve through these seasonal events with more maps, characters, modes and features.Įxcept you can play the game even sooner than that. Reward-A-Tron 9000, which is based purely off in-game progression, and after launch, more cosmetics, Victory Slabs and emotes through Rux’s Emporium using the Rainbow Stars premium currency. Other paths to the game’s extensive customisation options are Mr. Taking part in these Festivals, which kicks off with the game’s full launch on 18th October with the Lawn of Dune Festival and thematically transforms the social areas, will be the path to unlocking special festival specific customisation. Conceptually it actually feels most akin to the seasonal content and challenges of Battlefield V, rather than the paid straight track of unlocks that we find in Fortnite, PUBG and their ilk. The Reward Festivals are available to everyone and eschew blind box loot in favour of giving players choice to work through a map of unlockable nodes as you play. It all hangs together nicely, and PopCap are jumping aboard the latest trends in the games industry, namely a Battle Pass… except it’s free. The Space Cadet is similar, able to summon a slow moving floating Space Station, with ultra-powerful beam attacks. Turning into Oak and you have a much more powerful main gun, can spit out a rolling spiked log, and can even host up to three more Acorns atop your head like a walking tree tank. These final two are by far the most interesting, starting off as a faster small character who’s able to summon or transform a larger one. For this game, PopCap have created a trio of new classes, a new frontline fighter in the fire breathing Snapdragon and the zombies’ Action Hero, the faster stealthy Nightcap opposite the electric rollerskating of the Electric Slide, and with the most direct parallel, the Oak & Acorn opposite the Space Cadet. The series’ roots came in asymmetry between defensive plants and attacking zombies, but this was largely evened up for Garden Warfare 2 with largely parallel classes, albeit with some differing abilites. Our hands on time came with head to head multiplayer side of the game though, with Battle for Neighborville feeling like it’s hoping to be branded a hero shooter instead of a class-based shooter. You’ll now have PvE regions, going from the desert canyons of Mount Steep, through the Town Centre of Neighborville and out the other side to Weirding Woods, and these are designed with free roaming in mind, featuring NPCs to meet, missions to take on, and more beyond the horde mode of previous games. It proved to largely be a passing distraction in Garden Warfare 2, but Battle for Neighbourville is taking that freeform design into the co-op side of the game. Zombies franchise, you can pick up the latest game here. If this news has made you excited to check out the Plants vs. This was always a very fun, charming shooter, and we would love to see the series make a big comeback. It looks solid enough so far, but obviously this footage was taken from a very early build, so we can't judge anything by it yet.
