Multiplayer

I'm so excited right now.

This article is about a recently released or soft-released part of a Plants vs. Zombies game. As such, spoilers may be revealed. Read at your own risk!

The arena for the mode

Multiplayer is a mode in Plants vs. Zombies Heroes which the player gets to play against other opponents in real-time. The player gets to choose between the plant's or the zombie's side, where the player will fight a Plant or Zombie Hero, depending on which side they chose, similar to regular missions. It is unlocked after beating the game's tutorial. The mode requires internet connection to be accessed.

Gameplay

Upon entering, the player is presented with a menu to play two modes: Casual and Ranked matches.
In Casual mode there is no penalty for losses, but there is no winning prize other than Silver. This game mode is more suitable to test new decks that the player isn't sure about their utility, or to learn new battling skills.

In Ranked Matches there is a leveling system that determines the skills of the player. Winning rewards the player with more stars, while losing takes some depending of the league:

The player can take any side he/she prefers, there is no obligation.

In battle, both players get to shuffle their first four cards normally. The battle will begin once both have confirmed their given cards. From this point, the gameplay from regular missions will be applied here. There will always be a lane for heights at the far left, and a lane for water at the far right. The setting of the arena is a specium of coliseum, where plants and zombies watch the game. If the player wins, he/she is rewarded with 15 if on Casual Mode or 20 if on a Ranked Match. If the player loses, they will only win 5 .

A timer is added, which is placed under the cursor showing battle's turns. If the opponent takes too long to respond, the game will create a forced concede.

If a player concedes or disconnects to the game (via internet disconnection, leaving the app, or answering a phone/FaceTime call), their opponent will "win" the game.

Trivia

• If one looks closely at the crowd of zombies in the old menu, one can see that there is a Imposter Zombie styled to be in this game.
  • However, Imposter Zombie does not actually appear in the game as a zombie card, and is just there as a cameo.
    • Also, Plants vs. Zombies Heroes was going to look like Plants vs. Zombies Adventures, which is the only other game Imposter Zombie appears in.
