Today, PopCap Vancouver, creator of one of the world’s beloved video game franchises and a studio of Electronic Arts Inc., announced Plants vs. Zombies™ Garden Warfare 2 will host a public access multiplayer beta beginning January 14, and ending January 18. The multiplayer beta will be available for PlayStation®4 and Xbox One®, and will be a chance for players to experience the craziest shooter of 2016 before Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 hits stores February 25 in the United Kingdom.

“More than 8 million players have experienced the original Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare since it launched in 2014,” said Justin Wiebe, Creative Director, Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2. “That level of engagement is incredible, and that’s why we’re so excited for players to jump into the next PvZ adventure with the Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2 multiplayer beta. This game builds on the crazy fun people loved about the original and adds tons of new ways to play. We can’t wait for people to jump in and start having fun.”
