Plants vs. Zombies has taken another trip around the sun(flower)! To celebrate, Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville™ is throwing a party and you’re invited. You’ll find cake, party hats, balloons, confetti, and more strewn around Giddy Park. But be sure to get there early – Chomper has been eyeing the cake and you know it’s only a matter of time before he polishes off every piece! 

This month, things are getting steamy in the Prize Map with an all-new Legendary Upgrade. Use Prize Bulbs to complete the Prize Map and pick up the Steam Blaster upgrade for Scientist, a short-range weapon that leaves a trail of lingering hot s-s-s-steam!

Looking for some Steam Blaster tips from our development team? To get the most out of each shot, try to read the direction your enemy is moving in so they remain in the damaging steam longer. The Steam Blaster only has 5 shots, so make sure you place them well. It also has a limited range, so use Warp to get into striking distance quicker. And, finally, will the Steam Blaster fog up Scientist’s glasses? We’ll never tell!

But that’s not all, Birthdayz buddies! As you work your way through the Prize Map, you’ll also earn other great items. Reach the mid-way point to earn the Common Violet Femme customization for Cactus. Take a single path to reach the end and earn the steampunk-a-rific Legendary Steam Master customization for Scientist. Then, finish the entire map to earn the Legendary Sprocket Scientist customization.

Thanks for joining the party, PvZ fans! We couldn’t have made it this far without you.
