Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare Getting Microtransactions, PC Version Dated

Electronic Arts and PopCap have confirmed that Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare is getting microstransactions.

"Players will be given the option to purchase coins from the Sticker Shop, which allows players the ability to access new packs and character content more quickly – all the same content that can be earned through regular gameplay," PopCap producer Brian Lindley explained in a post on the EA blog.

According to the studio, this will only enhance the experience by providing more flexibility to the player. "Now you have the choice to play your way; you can play to get new packs and content via earned coins in the game, or you can purchase coins to get more of the packs and content you want right away," Lindley added.

In addition, Electronic Arts has finally revealed when the game will be available on PC. You'll be able to purchase Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare through Origin starting June 24th. To reward PC gamers for their patience, the title will include both the Garden Variety Pack and recently-announced Zomboss Down.
